Borkmann's Point - by Håkan Nesser

Overall a good story. I felt quite involved with the characters and wanted to know "who done it?" right up until the end, where there is a nice twist. There is some complexity, but it is not confusing. Likewise the foreign [Dutch?] names are not too hard to internalize. As the book was written in the early 1990s, the world described seems a little old-fashioned, but that is not a criticism. It is much less "gritty" than Larsson or Nesbo, which I am sure many readers would welcome. I think I will probably investigate other books by this author.
