I think I may be a little bit in love with Joona ♥️

This wasn’t as good as The Hypnotist, but better than The Nightmare.

As always, the detailed graphic descriptions mixed with blood are gore really paint the picture.

Again I didn’t predict the ending, I never remotely saw it coming or worked out how and why the medium was involved.

Slow in parts where it did kind of loose my attention, but then it picked by up, and I was devouring it

Loved the cliff hanger style ending and the set up for The Sandman

I honestly have no idea what to say. No words. I skipped the second book (The Nighmare) because at the time I started reading this one I didn't have it and now I have to read the fourth because i'm way too curious to see what happens and to know the rest of the story. Lars Kepler, once again, has done an amazing job.

I love how nuanced the psychological aspects in Lars Kepler's books are. It's painfully realistic, so do mind the trigger warnings. And of course, like the others I've read from this series, the thrill never disappoints! Joona is a badass, and the criminals are just as ruthless. What a treat. On to the next!
