Review of advance copy received from NetGalley
“Meet Me in the Dark” is an aptly named novel. This is a dark novel told from the perspective of three individuals: Arto (father to Ida), Ida (survivor of the first book in the series), and Kerttu (introduced as a detective that is retirement age that is haunted by an unsolved case).
This novel is told is really short chapters. James Patterson would probably ask, “Don’t you think that is a little too short?” They are that short. Especially as you near the end of the novel. Some of the translation has a choppiness to the sentences. But that does not take away from the novel.
This writing is well done. I had this overwhelming sense like I was on a spiral into madness at times. By the end of the novel, there are some twists that are heartbreaking.
Thank you to NetGalley and the Publisher for providing an ARC for an unbiased review.
