Spoke too soon. Somewhere in the middle there's a lot of seemingly unnecessary police stuff. Finished well though.

Now i'm into The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest.

Has anyone read anything by Jo Nesbø?

i just finished the girl who kicked the hornet's nest and found it soo disappointing. so many unnecessary details and wtf was up with the berger subplot? that whole part should have been taken out! i really liked the girl who played with fire though. that one was a page turner.

started game change a couple of days ago:
