The book is widely praised as an impactful and important work of reportage, with one reviewer even calling it the author's best, surpassing their highly regarded previous book "Lasermannen". Readers found it to be exceptionally well-written, solid, and meticulously crafted. Its strength lies in its ability to expose critical societal issues, including the influence of special interests on authorities and experts, and the media's failure to maintain a scrutinizing role. Many commend the book for highlighting the efforts of brave individuals striving for justice and human decency, making for a compelling and high-value read that profoundly affects its audience.
While largely positive, some reviews note that the book can be a challenging and painful read due to its tragic subject matter and strong scenes and testimonies. A recurring criticism is that the narrative is occasionally perceived as too heavily biased or angled, sometimes simplifying characters into clear-cut good or evil roles. One reviewer felt that the book's structure, possibly its length, slightly detracted from the overall experience. Additionally, a comparison to "Lasermannen" suggested that this book might not offer as broad a reflection of society and could have delved more deeply into the aftermath of the events it describes.
Overall, the book is considered a powerful and essential piece of journalism that evokes strong emotional responses, leaving readers appalled but often not surprised by the issues it uncovers. Despite some concerns about bias or structural aspects, its content and the importance of its message are consistently rated highly. This book is strongly recommended for readers interested in investigative journalism, societal critique, and those willing to confront uncomfortable truths about contemporary society. It is particularly suited for individuals who appreciate in-depth reporting that challenges established narratives and highlights the complexities of justice and human rights, even if it means dismantling comfortable illusions.
