De lectura ágil, maneja varias tramas a la vez dejando algunas sin continuar imagino pendientes para el próximo libro. Me gustó la descripción de los personajes y de los escenarios. Recomendado.

3e livre d’une longue série de roman policier suedois. J’aime comment les livres de cette série ont toutes des histoires indépendantes, où on suit le même inspecteur. Il y a aussi des histoires parallèles au développement plus lent, qui se continue d’un livre à l’autre, donnant un fil conducteur qui accroche

LOVED IT! The only thing keeping it from a 5 stars is that Morgan with Asperger's is a very stereotypical in a bad way:/

I never seem to figure out whodunit. This was no exception.

My interest in a series usually starts to fade as the series goes on but that has not been the case with this one. Camilla Läckberg really knows how to craft an engaging thriller. She had so many characters and side plots in her stories yet it isn't confusing keeping track of those characters. I was equally interested in the lives and personalities of most of those characters. One can read any of her books as standalones but it's a real treat to get to know characters in more depth as the series progresses and to see their real lives, trials, and prevails with all of their human faults. This is probably the only series I'll be continuing in the next year.

This is my first book by this author; I realized it was the third in a series but I had received it from the library and based on some of the reviews, seemed like I could read it in a stand-alone manner. I am sure I missed out on some character development of Patrik and Erica, but I don't think that impacted the mystery-solving too much. I have never read a book before that had so many (i.e. all) characters that were completely unlikeable, despicable, and broken. There was ONE character I was sympathetic towards. And, there were many characters and storylines in this book - so that amounts to a lot of unlikeable-ness. Yet, I kept reading it just to see how all the stories came together and the who-done-it was revealed. Which was satisfying. I also know I should put my American tv-law-drama beliefs on a book set elsewhere, but it’s almost unbelievable that the legal system in Sweden is as bumbling as it is in this book. Also, little cultural items were distracting – I’m not sure if it was the translation or just oddities – for example, certain people missing certain pieces of basic technology.
