I really enjoy this series. Lots of twists and turns in this novel, in fact, sometimes almost to the point of excess with too many tricks and fake-outs, but it was still a great page-turner. The reader gets to know some of the other police officers who work with Harry Hole, with more insight into them than in previous books. It's hard to say much without spoiling the plot, especially considering where the last book left off, but suffice it to say, I look forward to the next one.
