I accidentally read the Sebastian Bergman books in the wrong order, starting with number three and then going to one and two. It means there were certain things in book two that I knew but fortunately it didn't spoil my reading very much. It was more that I had a few of those moments: "Yeah, that's what you think". Anyway, a gripping story with some twists and a change to get us a glimpse into why treatment in youth can seriously mess children up. Some never really see to get a chance, although fortunately most messed up kids don't become serial killers. . Sebastian Bergman himself is an interesting character. He's a real dick who hardly deserves any symphathy and yet the reader has the tendency of hoping things will work out for him. Except for my husband - he just thinks Sebastian's a dick.
