Eh? Eh? Eh? Almost all the characters say it, page after page after page. It got to be quite annoying. Aside from that, I enjoyed the book. While not as polished a writer as Arnaldur Indridason or Henning Mankell, I see lots of potential and have put his next book on my wish list.
First book I've read by Ãke Edwardson and I loved it! His writing style is different from a lot of Swedish author's I've read, which made the book even more interesting. The characters and storyline were well developed and the translation was excellent.
Fabulous Swedish mystery...dark and atmospheric. Like Henning Mankell's work. Highly recommended!
Has you guessing "who done it" - entertaining.
Good read and looking forward to 2nd in the series.
A five-star mystery.
