I enjoyed the review. I’ve never read a Nesbo (Nesbø?) book, but I once saw a movie based on one of his books - I think it was called “Smilla’s Sense of Snow” or something like that. I know, I know, a movie and a book are two completely different things, but if the book bore any resemblance to the movie beyond the title, it was enough to warn me away from the writer. After what I thought was a fairly intriguing opening, the story became so far-fetched that by the end it raised the far-fetched to the ludicrous. (BTW, I’ve never been one of Neil Diamond’s biggest fans, but if I had to listen to one of his songs, I’d choose “Holly Holy.”)
@@OldGuyReviewsBooks Mea culpa! “Smilla’s Sense of Snow” was based on a book by Peter Høeg. It must have been the “ø” that confused me. (Any idea how ø is pronounced?)

People give me flak for reading George Chesbro.
Can honestly say I have not read one thing by him. Which, given his production, is somewhat odd.
