When I read this book, I was deep in the throes of my WWII obsession. I was reading every book I could find, fiction and non-fiction that had to do witht the subject.
This book is narrarated by Death and I found that rather unique and something that I was not expecting.
I typically do not leave reviews that contain spoilers, and I cannot properly review this book without them, so I will leave on this note: prepare yourself for a marvelously written heart-breaking tale that will leave you contemplating your life alongside an empty box of tissues.

Every once in a while, I become completely obsessed with certain genres. So basically, every time a new Jo Nesbo book comes out, I go on my Scandinavian crime fiction reading rampage. Nesbo recommends Fossum, and Fossum is considered the Queen in Norwegian crime fiction. So, naturally, I started with book 1 in her Inspector Sejer series, Eva's Eye. I believe it's been published under a different title in the States.
Overall, it was a good read. It wasn't necessarily easy to figure out, but maybe it was just me being slow. It was a quick read, and a good introduction to Sejer.
