Tim Dorsey fans will have fun Publishers Weekly A sort of Fargo in Finland, if you can imagine such a thing Crime Reads Finnish criminal chucklemeister Tuomainen is channelling Carl Hiaasen in this hilarious novel set in a bizarre Florida-style beach resort on Finlands chilly shore. There are comically inept dim-crims, inventive psychos, a hot babe and even a blow-up pink flamingo which is a lot for ace detective Jan Nyman to deal with when he arrives, undercover, to investigate a mysterious death Sunday Times Tuomainens crime comedy is frequently compared to Fargo -era Coen Brothers, but Floridas Carl Hiaasen is likely a strong influence too A full-blooded, off-kilter caper-gone-wrong that also serves as an acerbic commentary on the crime genre Irish Times 'You dont expect to laugh when youre reading about terrible crimes, but thats what youll do when you pick up one of Tuomainens decidedly quirky thrillers' New York Times A tightly paced Scandinavian thriller with a wicked sense of humour Foreword Reviews Like Fargo before it, unfortunate events take place and people get in over their heads The off kilter, black comedy tone is perfect for such a far-fetched story, guaranteeing plenty of spontaneous bouts of laughter CultureFly Youll laugh, youll cry with laughter, what is there not to like? Welcome to a classic new holiday resort! Crime Time A quirky, smirky, entertaining slice of fabulous A wonderful wave of dark humour rolls through this novel gathering raised eyebrows and snorts LoveReading Takes a Finnish slice from the comic, crazy, greedy, crime world of the likes of Get Shorty or Fargo .
