This book started as a random 3 star read. Then a twist early on raised it to 4 stars, all the way to chapter 32, when a single conversation between two characters made it 5 stars immediately.

This is your standard well written crime thriller, with your standard tough guy, who's determined, well trained and likes solitude. A few good twists. Very easy to digest writing style from an author, who seems to have done his research on the topic he writes about.

And then there's chapter 32, where we meet a whole new character - for like 3 pages. They talk and it barely has anything to do with the plot. But it was just so beautiful. It made me like this author, and the way he looks at the world so much.

A great first instalment. Made me excited for the rest of the series.
