Review: Ohlsson is a great author - Read all her Bergman series Just starting Martin Brenner - Interesting twists - I have read LOTS of Scandi crime books - this is right up there - probably one of the best Authors

Review: I usually like Kristina Ohlsonn and this sounded like a good story. It was - up to a point, then it got messy and over complicated at the end, badly executed and descended into a huge info download and over explanation. The premise is great - two little boys are driven to nearby woods, let go then picked off, sniper style by the murderer. The detectives Alex Recht and Fredrika Bergman investigate yet seem to come up against a wall of obfuscation by the Swedish Security Service when a connection with Mossad presents itself. All they have to go on is a strange clue that points to the Jewish urban myth of the Paper Boy, who steals children away and kills them (yes, nice fairytale). I did read to the end and enjoyed the story but was disappointed that a mainstream, highly marketed book did not have more professional editing in regards to the ending. It let what was an otherwise interesting tale down.
