I liked reading about all the different characters. The final third, where the actual robbery takes place, is quite exciting. There seem to be a lot of fiction mixed in with the facts, but I assume the basic story is close to the truth. ( ) Interessant blanding af fiktion og nonfiktion. Skrevet som en god, gammeldags spændingsroman, men baseret på virkelige hændelser og interviews med de kriminelle. Lidt spøjs overgang fra datid til nutid i bogens sidste del, der sikkert er gjort i et forsøg på at skabe spænding, men bare forvirrer. En enkelt plottvist - som må være blandt det, forfatteren selv har fundet på - ødelægges ved at være lidt for tilfældigt og uforklaret indsat. no reviews | add a review
