The blurb describes this as comic. I'm not sure I'd agree. It's light, certainly; easy to read but it didn't make me laugh. And that's not because it starts with a depressed lawyer suffering the consequences of a not-quite-as-bad-as-it-might-have-been-because-the-author-wants-him-to-be-a-sympathetic-character indiscretion: my own sense of humour is often black. No, it's just got rather too many almost but not quite credible coincidences and near-farcical scenes. The stakes aren't really high enough for long enough for things to be dramatic, and the situations aren't quite ridiculous enough for you to cross into accepting that it's meant to be silly and buckle in for the ride, as you do with, for example, Michael Frayn. I read it happily enough, but it's not particularly memorable and I'm rather disappointed.

Picked up from shelf in York's.

This was an okay read but not very believable.

Taking along to the 2015 Bookcrossing Convention in Oxford, UK.

This book will travel home to Norway with me, I picked it up at the Book Buffet at the BookCrossing Convention 2015 in Oxford.

I find that the text at the back of the book promises to much. It is not "compulsively readable" or "a genuine literary thriller". I like how the people and their environment are described, and what is going on between the different characters, but am not so impressed by the overall plot. But still, it is an OK and relaxing read.

Released at the Book Buffet at the International BookCrossing Convention 2017 in Oslo.

I took this book with me to the release walk.

The book was released under the release walk at the Bookcrossing Convention in Oslo. Released at one of the sculptures.
