Took a bit to get into it but once I was I could barely put it down. Very interesting thread running through about the influence of Nazism in Sweden. Very suspenseful.

One of those books I've been meaning to read for a long time, and I'm glad I finally got around to it. It was hard to put down.

Although this story was somewhat entertaining, I found myself miserably disappointed upon finishing. Before reading, I truly thought this was going to become a favorite for me. Perhaps being that it was published posthumously, more hype was made than it deserved? The "biggest" twist was ridiculously predictable from the beginning of the story. I will probably continue with the Millennium saga, in hope that I discover something great.
