A fast paced read, albeit this has a lot more to do with Harry Hole's personal relationships than his previous novels, but still a moderate amount of the usual. Addiction is another central theme of this book and, without glorification it puts it on display in all its hideous life-destroying glory.
Graphic: Addiction, Drug use, Drug abuse, Gore, Gun violence, Murder, Physical abuse, and Police brutality
Moderate: Alcoholism and Kidnapping
Minor: Xenophobia, Racial slurs, Racism, Suicide, and Stalking
