Editor's Review

AudioBook Atlas

Thomas Engelbrektson's narration is the star of the show here. His ability to convey the subtle shifts in Simon's emotions and motivations is nothing short of impressive. Thelander's story is a slow burn, but it's a burn that's worth waiting for. The pacing is deliberate, allowing the tension to build steadily until it reaches a satisfying, if not explosive, climax. My only critique is that some of the secondary characters could have been more fully fleshed out. Overall, 'Vaka för död vän' is a distinctive addition to the Nordic noir genre, offering a unique blend of gritty realism and psychological depth.
