Anne Holt manages to make us imagine and feel for even the smallest characters, even if they appear only for two pages before being killed off. I was a bit apprehensive at first that there were so many characters and (to me, foreign) names to keep track of, but she introduces each one with enough detail to make them memorable, but without overloading the images unnecessarily.

The different storylines, althouth separate at first, merge together seamlessly and the author manages to keep the suspense high, even while describing innocuous and innocent scènes.
If you enjoy a good thriller without too much blood, but with a good dose of realism, give this a go. Anne Holt was a lawyer and she deftly brings her knowledge into the story without burdening us with unnecessary jargon just for the sake of showing off.
