If I'd judged this book on the cover alone, I would not have picked it up as the cover and title did nothing to inspire me. However on reading the blurb and the first couple of chapters I was intrigued enough to take a chance!
Based on a real life heist that occurred in Sweden in 2009, this is part fact and part fiction. How much of each, I'm not sure as I didn't know the story going in.
For me, this didn't immediately grip me and I found the first half pretty slow going. I thought it would be action packed, or at least pacey enough to keep my interest while they built up to the actual heist.
It's only really in the second half that the plot moves forward and gathers pace towards the end when the heist takes place. A little slow but just about worth the wait!
