DNF: so disappointed with my reaction to this one as it’s had so much hype.
I probably should have put it straight down as soon as I saw the first sentence “the red stain was like a scream in the silence” - argghh!
One dimensional characters a very plodding plot and way too much telling not showing.....also so many cliches within the first 200 hundred pages or so: the newly single rookie detective in a new town meets newly single female who is clearly a main protagonist...the dark foreboding weather.
200 pages was more than enough and I abandoned it.
One more thing:
Poorly translated too!
Did I say I didn’t like it?!
