This is the second book I've read by the author. I thought it was great and also enjoyed Stalker so I might need to check out his other books. I'm a fan of Scandinavian thriller as they tend to be a bit more sinister and gruesome than their UK/USA counterparts. The Rabbit Hunter is no exception. I loved the concept of a killer lurking in the shadows of their victim's homes. This gave me the chills. I loved the fact the killer is confusing and taunting his victims and the authorities by reciting an old nursery rhyme about rabbits. This book chilled me. I liked the fact the hero, Joona Linna is far from perfect and is in prison for much of the book. This added an interesting dimension. I really must read other books in the series.
