A moody short read, leaving you with more questions than it answers.

Read it for a Swedish course. The book was okay, very easy to read, but I think this easiness was also my greatest detriment to really enjoying it. It was usually possible to call out plot twists at least a chapter in advance. That said, it’s not a horrible book, and its small format makes it very easy to read on the go.

Den här boken var intressant, spännande, och lätt att läsa. Den var den första romanen att jag läser på svenska. Jag vill läsa många andra böcker av Henning Mankell i framtiden.
