A review by ceciiiilllleeeee
The Chestnut Man by Søren Sveistrup

dark mysterious tense fast-paced

1.5

Read this for my bookclub and struggled with it for the same reason I struggle with a lot of crime fiction: the frequency and intensity of violence against women (and in this case, against children as well). Would not recommend if you have similar feelings! 

Was not overly satisfied with the ending either - too many loose ends, and the logic behind the killings (particularly why women were targeted) didn’t hold up.
