Spennende bok, men for lang. For mye detaljerte beskrivelser av ting som ikke er relevant for handlingen. Og så går han i den klassiske fellen om at man akkurat eller akkurat ikke rekker frem til morderen. Hadde gitt en 5-er uten manglene.
Roy Grace, Brighton

'Whatever it is, I wasn't born with it.'
'It's being a sosiopath. Having no conscience, as ordinary people know it.'
He wondered, sometimes, if he would make old bones. And what it would be like. To be retired, hobbling along, confused by the past, bewildered by the present and with the future mostly irrelevant. Or being pushed along in a wheelchair, with a blanket over his knees, another one over his mind.
All men lie. That's how they operate. If you want a longterm relationship with a man, you've got to understand it's going to be with a liar. It's in their nature - it's genetic, it's a bloody Darwinian acquired characteristic for survival, OK? They tell you what they want you to hear.
She had learned from her last relationship that just when you thought everything was perfect, life could turn round and bite you.

Perspective. Everything was about perspective. One man's darkness was another man's daylight. How come so many people did not realize that?
