About book Der Leuchtturmwärter (2009)

Es el primer libro de la autora que leo y... esperaba más.Hay momentos en los que la investigación se me ha hecho bastante lenta, como que no avanzaba nada, además que en otras ocasiones me parecía repetitivo.Me ha enganchado a partir de la página 40, pero el final me ha matado... no me ha gustado.Creo que lo que más me ha gustado ha sido los cortos "capítulos" sobre la isla en 1870.En fin, ya veremos si en un futuro pruebo algún otro de sus libros. Really,Camilla Lackberg? Ghosts?! Ugh. While I am usually just annoyed by the overly simplistic, unbelievable saccharin nature of the protagonists' personal life, in this case even the mystery let me down. This book was lazy and disappointing. While Lackberg often uses the parallel story device effectively, here it is so bad (read: obvious what is going on) that it is laughable. And normally I enjoy the slow unravelling of the (detailed) plot, but in this book my attention wasn't captured because the red herring was so lame that I never thought it a viable explanation for the crime. There was no "aha" as things came together; rather it was a "phew" because it was done.
