Description

If you find him, he has already found you!

A psychopath terrorizes Copenhagen.

At every bloodstained crime scene, he leaves his "card": a chestnut man, a handmade doll made of matches and two chestnuts. Examining the dolls, the Department of Criminal Investigations makes a shocking discovery: a fingerprint belonging to a girl, the daughter of a minister, who was abducted and murdered a year ago.

Tragic coincidence or something much more twisted?

In order to save innocent lives, a detective couple will have to put aside their differences and start connecting the gruesome elements left behind by the Chestnut Man.
Because one thing is absolutely clear: the killer is on a mission with a far-reaching end?

And no one is safe.

    A blatant copy of Nesbo's novel "The Snowman". With so many similarities, I can't understand how they didn't end up in court. If Nesbo's book didn't exist, maybe I would have liked it.

    One of the best books of its kind that I have read. I think it was also made into a movie/series. I recommend it.

    Very strong and interesting case, however asymmetrically developed, dropping the weight and increasing the pace almost before the end

    This review is about the publication date: 2020

    It is wonderful, easy to read, and addictive. With twists and nice connections between the scenes. It is also satisfying, approximately 660 pages. It is worth buying if you are a fan of stories that seek the solution to murders and the hunt for a serial killer. The author is also a well-known screenwriter, so the writing is very cinematic. One last thing, as strange as it may seem, if you are a fan of Tsafoulias' series "Alter Ego," then you will love this book incredibly. Personally, these scene alternations, twists, the artistic characterization of the characters, and the fact that there is a killer with a specific methodology that leaves his personal identity at the scene of each crime (here the killer leaves chestnuts) reminded me of the motif of "Alter Ego." Clearly and without exaggeration, if you liked Tsafoulias' series as a style, then you will particularly love this specific book.

    Cinematic writing, unique story, interesting development.
    The ending "disappointed" me because it is an enormous book and in the last few pages, countless twists are condensed.

    Very nice plot keeps you engaged until the end.
    Also, the finale comes with a logical explanation and not hastily and unrelated like in many of its kind.

    Although I am not a fan of the genre, I would recommend the book! It has fast-paced action and very nice descriptions that help you easily build characters and locations in your imagination, while the short chapters greatly assist in quick reading.

    3 stars only for this in the picture. From page 526 it goes to page 531. I don't know the reason.

    Quite interesting and well-written. If I were a fan of detective novels, it would definitely excite me more, but I recommend it without hesitation.

    Excellent writing! Until the very last moment, I couldn't figure out who the murderer was! I read it in just 24 hours.

    This review is about the publication date: 2020

    Like a well-directed Hollywood movie, with a beginning, middle, and end, suspense and twists! You make guesses all the time, but when you realize who the culprit is, everything makes sense! The tension builds up towards the end. It starts smoothly, as you would expect, and gradually, as more and more elements unfold, it becomes more of a "thriller." Satisfying ending.

    The book, for me, has an extra positive aspect. While it has a large and easily readable font, it is also quite long as a book. It's not one of those books you read in a day. You enjoy it. It's worth it!
