The Chestnut Man

This book was phenomenal. Translated from Swedish, this book follows an FBI equivalent in Copenhagen as they try to catch the culprits of many murders. The plot of the murder history was varying and did not make sense at times, while the reader was trying to figure out that story, the story of the main characters and their relationships kept evolving. Behaviors of both parties were incredibly intricate. Told from several ‘points-of-view' (not first person, but narrated as if telling a story about that person) from 5+ points of view. It was hard to keep it all straight but it was part of the development. I listened to this book, which was great. The narrator was awesome and played the part of several people perfectly. However, now that I know the ending, I am looking forward to reading my physical copy in the future so that I can observe how all the pieces fall into place and look for things i would not have noticed before. Highly recommend this book!!! One of the best books I've read this year. I loved the fact that the chapters were only 3-4 pages, which made the plot choppy and incredibly fast paced. The amount of information, false-leads, character involvement, and just overall character development made this book fantastic. It was so well-rounded and kept me guessing til the end. There is also prospect for another book in the series the way it ended. It doesn't beg for another book, but the potential is there!
