Trigger warnings: stalking, murder, child abduction.

This series is proving a little hit or miss for me. I mean, I've enjoyed all of the books I've read so far. But at the same time, they haven't been STAND OUTS.

This one primarily covers a cold case, featuring the unexplained death of a woman many years earlier which Ari Thor starts investigating following a request from her nephew. And frankly, that side of the story was...not particularly interesting.

The other side of the story covers a guy who realises that he and his family are being stalked. THAT side of things was very atmospheric and I really liked it. Perhaps a little unfortunately though, it reminded me a tad too much of Yrsa Sigurdardottir's Why Did You Lie? which I read back in June.

So this one had MOMENTS of being really really good. But the bulk of it was...pretty forgettable.
