Özet
 The first novel in the Oslo Crime Files, a tense and dark quartet of thrillers for fans of Camilla Lackberg and Jo Nesbo. 'Sleek and cunning' Evening Standard

A woman vanishes from a forest near Oslo. Days later her body is found, seemingly mauled and maimed by a bear. When another woman is reported missing and then found dead with the same scratches and bites, police find the link between them is local doctor, Axel Glenne.

Forensics reveal the women were murdered and a net of suspicion tightens around Axel, who is convinced his twin brother Brede is responsible. But no one has seen him for years and if Axel is to prove his innocence, he needs to find Brede. And fast. But there isn't a single photograph of the brothers together and neither Axel's wife nor his children has ever met a man called Brede ...

Eleştirmen yorumları

Nothing is as it seems in this sleek and cunning thriller. The first in a series called the Oslo Crime Files, it is a more than promising debut (Mark Sanderson)

Takes a good 4 hours to get going. Eventually gets interesting, and the twist is OK. Hard to follow the Norwegian names at times, and the female voices are very hard to differentiate.

I might listen to the next one, but there’s much better stuff on Audible than this.

Eventually warmed up

I began to think I had made a mistake wit this one. Just as I was losing interest it picked up again.

The final denouement wasn't entirely a surprise, and I didn't really like any of the characters that much, except perhaps, Nina, the policewoman. But I began to see why each character had aspects that were a bit unsavoury - these all fed into the plot.

The reading was overall good, but could at times be irritating.

I think if I could I would give it 3 1/2.

Slow starter

It would appear that all Norwegian women sound like 90 year olds with thin reedy voices, the male voices are only slightly better. A shame.
Apparently you have to give 1 star as a minimum rating, so zero was not permissible

Good story ruined by terrible narration

This has taken so long to get going, The story moves so slowly that I lost the will to live. The whole thing has irritated me to an extreme! The doctor's children are spoilt and rude, the voices for some characters are so weird that they are unbelievable. I couldn't find a single character that I liked and I couldn't care less what happened to anyone or why!
What a disappointment!

Dreary in the extreme
