I wanted a quick thriller, I got a quick thriller. 
It won't change the world, but it was refreshing to read a Swiss author, characters who aren't flawed policemen or -women and is critical of the systems we live in. 

It's a little strange that the commodity turns out to be true, and the deaths that result are basically forgotten. But maybe that's the point, that in the character's place we too would turn a blind eye.
