3.0

Språket flyter godt og det var vanskelig å legge den fra seg iblant, så hvertfall 4 stjerner for språk som holder spenningen gående.
Samtidig så syns jeg at karakterene er klisje, spesielt hovedpersonen, og at man kan gjennomskue deler av handlingen, noe som dessverre trekker boka ned for min del.

Mila Lind is a well known crime writer, and is using missing person cases to find inspiration for her next book. Thorkild Aske is a disgraced police officer, who has agreed to investigate a case of two missing school girls, and while investigating, people are still going missing, people are getting killed, he’s a target and he finds out all isn’t what it seems.

One thing I enjoy about thrillers, when done well, is the way they keep you engaged, on your toes and guessing to the very end, and scatter her ashes did just that for me.

While scatter her ashes is the second book in the Thorkild Aske series it is definitely one you can read as a stand alone.

I was hooked from the first few pages, and while I thought I knew who done it about halfway through, it surprised me that I was absolutely wrong. While some parts slowed down and the investigation in the story itself was at time, intricate, the variety of characters, all really screwed up in their own way made for a great story and a great premise of “who done it”.
