The language is a little eye-rollingly flowery at times, but it's a great story. I fell in love with the side characters a bit more than the main characters, to be honest.
The story itself reminds me a lot of fic, which you'll either enjoy if you read fic or not notice if you don't.

A nice, slightly predictable crime novel, which is not the type of book I usually read, but I enjoyed it. The Norwegian setting gives it a nice twist and the ending left me hoping there's another book in this series.
