Elements I liked:
1. The mystery on the Eastern front was intriguing and satisfying. The connection to the present mystery was also interesting and it was good that the murderer was in some sense more a nationalist than a fascist.
2. I like the parts where Harry is making inquiries and connecting dots.
3. I like Ellen as a character and the part of the book after her death with Harry's calls. That was moving.
4. The fascist, Sverne, was well-characterised.

Elements I disliked:
1. The entire subplot with Helena felt very overwritten with a fairly unsatisfying conclusion.
2. As was the case in the Snowman, the conclusion is just coincidentally revealed to Harry, in a unsatisfactory way.
3. I feel a bit ambivalent about Rakel as a character, and particularly what recommends her as a love interest besides being hot.
