This was my introduction to Camilla Läckberg, who at that time was starting to become really popular in the Netherlands. For some reason, and I'm guilty myself as well as I really liked them, Scandinavia thrillers were very popular a few years ago in the Netherlands. As in, really, really popular. N...
Τελικά καταλήγω ότι τα επιτυχημένα σκανδιναβικά αστυνομικά μυθιστορήματα (όπως αυτό της Läckberg, όλα του Larsson, και κάποια του Nesbø και του Mankell) μου αρέσουν τόσο πολύ για δυο λόγους: 1.Δημιουργούν μια απίθανη ατμόσφαιρα με πολύ στυλ και 2.Οι χαρακτήρες είναι ζωντανοί, άνθρωποι που προσπαθού...

I'd prefer to give The Ice Princess 2.5 stars, but...This was a good, solid mystery, decently told and full of red herrings. The denouement was a surprise, and not. The author skillfully manipulated the plot so that any outcome she chose would have seemed perfectly plausible and perfectly acceptab...
