I suppose I should not have read all the reviews for the book because I was expecting it to be wonderful. It was a good read but not any better than the "[b:Girl with the Dragon Tattoo|2429135|The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (Millennium, #1)|Stieg Larsson|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1275608878s/2429135.jpg|1708725] series".

4 stars for the first 3/4 of the book; 3 stars for the last quarter. It left me feeling a bit depressed by the end. Decent crime novel; better writing than the usual paperbacks.
