Another good installment in the Martin Beck series. Would recommend at least reading the first book, Roseanna, before this one, because the plots are related. Skip the first chapter if you don‘t want to read about a threatening situation with sexual elements; I skipped it myself. The rest of the book is fine.

ErinSBecker I LOVE the Martin Beck series. This review made me remember I have Locked Room sitting on my shelf for a rainy day. Thanks for the inspiration to dig in!

rabbitprincess @TheAromaofBooks It‘s so funny, I was thinking about Our Man in Havana just the other day and was considering pulling it out! 5y
TheAromaofBooks That's the way I was with Fangirl! I've been really wanting to reread it and when I was making my list I said to myself, “No matter what, I'm reading this one this month!“ And then it got picked! 5y
