The fourth book in this incredible Norwegian crime novel series was one of the better one. Rich in detail, deceptive and twisting with its clues, immensely complicated characters and a mystery that just never seemed to stop...until it did...sort of. Harry Hole is a detective in a long line of flawed heroes who struggle to keep going. He’s become one of my favorites because of those flaws. This is no “superman” detective who always gets it right, fights well and always hits his target. Far from it. And that’s why he’s become so popular.
