Review: The Chestnut Man

The Chestnut Man The Chestnut Man by Søren Sveistrup
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

From comments, I expected serious gore, even splatterpunk. But although it has gore (and certain revelations later on that may be psychological triggers), it wasn't nearly as extreme as I expected or as the reader's hook seemed to indicate. A plethora of character building and evolution (and devolution) and an enormously twisted mystery provided quite the entertainment and kept me in suspense throughout. This is fine Scandinavian Noir indeed.
