Not for me
When I read the synopsis I was really interested in this book. But when it arrived and I started to read it, it turned out to be different to how I expected.

I got to about halfway through and decided I didn't want to finish it. I didn't really engage with the characters, or the story.

It started off with a 70 year old Swedish woman shooting her 85 year old husband dead after a phone call which just gave the code word Geiger. Then she leaves. That is what grabbed me. But then the story goes into Cold War territory and the relationship between Sweden and East Germany. The husband was a famous children's television personality in his younger days and would hold parties at his home which famous people would attend, including other TV stars, business people and politicians. But was he a spy working for East Germany? Or for Sweden against East Germany? And why is his wife now going around shooting other people connected to him? Is she the spy? I'll never know, as I only got to page 203.

If anyone would like to tell me how it ends, feel free.

Lilly Hawkins is manning the news desk as KJAY when she learns there's been a shooting at her house. She rushes there to find her uncle is the victim. While he fights for his life, she tries to figure out who shot him. What secret from his past has resurfaced? I love the characters, and I felt them grow even more here. And the story kept me turning pages to see what the next twist would be.
