4.5

This is a slow paced book with a lot of characters and politics which usually isn't my favourite but I really enjoyed this. I've lived in Sweden which why this book originally peaked my interest. I knew Sweden was a neutral country in WW2 but had no idea how Sweden played both to the allies and Hitler to keep its neutrality. My only complaint is that the ending felt a bit rushed after such a long slow build.
