amrap's review against another edition
5.0
A crime fiction novel set during the Siege of Sarajevo featuring Vlado Petric, a police detective, working a murder case. A well craft procedural novel with many twists and turns. It provides a great insight into the war, and is quite a bleak novel with dark overtones. The ending does not have a clear resolution as there is a sequel to the first.

It was all right; workmanlike. I felt a little guilty, as though I should care more about the characters, but I just sort of didn't. You live in a war zone, life is terrible, you miss your family...and yet, I'm failing to really care as much as I should. Then again, that might just be me.
I liked the ending, though. It tied everything together well, in a way that was satisfying, and made me think, "I should have seen that coming" when I totally didn't.
