Hurrah for the fad of Scandinavian crime fiction in the United States, because it’s pushing and pulling some really good books into translation…. this is the other kind of Scandinavian crime fiction, a sturdy and well put together police investigation of murder and malice, with a detective team that’s quietly likable…. it lets the calm braiding of plot threads gleam quietly, proof of Tursten’s capable narration and sensible probing of human motivation.
