Bye bye blackbird analysis

He couldn t leave it alone It became excessive and actually put him in the hospital I liked the way Stein always had Axel answer questions by asking another question He never seem to give up on his belief that he was right It leaves us with an opening by making it very noir in the end I would recommend this book to anyone who is involved with rapes and murder I see that this is the 7th book in the series and that means now that I found Jesper I need to so some catch up Danish Not sure if something got lost in the translation of this but I struggled to read it The premise itself of a DNA sample connecting several crimes and the possible redemption of Steen is a good one but I just couldn t take to any of the characters Steen just doesn t seem to have anything worth liking beyond his desire for solving the crime Normally I really enjoy Scandi crime but sadly this one wasn t for me Danish Die For Me is the second book in the Axel Steen Danish gritty police series Without the gritty darkness of the first book.

Bye bye blackbird lyrics Eigenlijk speelt het onderzoek naar de verkrachtingen en moord een bijrol en speelt het karakter Alex de hoofdrol Maar aangezien ik deze vent niet meer kan luchten of zien houd ik het hierbij voor gezien Bye bye Jesper Stein Danish This is the second installment in the Axel Steen series and also the second that has been translated in English after the intriguing Unrest Stein established himself as a worthy representative of Scandinavian crime fiction in the English speaking audiences with Unrest and I had pre ordered Die For Me in months before its official release as I couldn t wait for Happily the book delivers and this is something rare when the expectations are set too high from the reader This is a bit different novel than the previous one in terms of narrative technique but maintains the thrilling plotline and great characterization that we first encountered in Unrest Axel Steen is a rogue homicide detective in the Copenhagen police force and he is known to his colleagues for his volatile character and the high efficiency rate in case solving Axel is a rather troubled individual he is divorced from his wife Cecilie and has a little daughter Emma whom he sees every other week as arranged by the lawyers He has some vices that also drag him down the most prominent being his proclivity to smoke hash regularly thus often becoming numb and spaced out distancing himself from other people and his surroundings The beginning of the book finds Axel going through a tough phase in his life as his ex wife and daughter are outside Denmark and he is alone in his apartment in one of Copenhagen s most underprivileged neighborhoods N rrebro puzzling over a new case that shares common characteristics with a previous investigation one that finally led to his divorce and loss of his family. Bye bye blackbird etta jones For the rest of my review visit Danish I was fortunate enough to take part in the blog tour marking the release of the first Axel Steen thriller Unrest which proved an exhilarating and thought provoking series opener In common with the first book Jesper Stein has no reticence into plunging his reader into a nightmarish scenario with a particularly vicious and sadistic individual stalking the streets of Copenhagen On the basis of the first two books it comes as no surprise that they have been optioned for television by the producers of The Bridge and if they find the right actor to bring the right level of tortured maverick detective well it will be an absolute must see What Stein achieves so beautifully is manipulating the old clich of crime fiction that of the maverick cop with mental and physical weaknesses estranged from personal relationships lives for the job and so on by making his protagonist Axel Steen utterly mesmerising He s strong willed and tenacious somewhat foolhardy at times with his physical wellbeing both by his own actions and by putting himself in the path of danger without a moment s hesitation but what I really like about his character is the absolute certainty and steadfastness he brings to every action he takes in his professional life His doggedness of purpose and the absolute empathy he has with both the murder victim and the women who have been subjected to the most violent and degrading attacks sets him apart admirably from his colleagues and importantly instils a faith in the women that their attacker will be caught and punished To balance it out nicely his personal life is not so clear cut and leads to times of procrastination doubt and complete tactlessness but hey he s only human but there is also an insidious presence in his day job who would probably tick off even the most mild mannered individual to add to his troubles Steen carries within him a mercurial mix of hot headedness empathy compulsiveness and sheer bloody mindedness that makes him unpredictable but also fascinating A complicated man to be sure but a great character Dealing with such an emotive and troubling subject as violence against women and rape I think there is a danger of readers becoming desensitised slightly to the effect of these crimes and the fear shame and anger that women live with afterwards I found this central theme in the book was handled in a particularly sensitive and balanced way that whilst not shying away from the visceral physical details of what these women have been subjected to there is a real sense of understanding throughout of how this impacts on both their lives and physical and mental wellbeing post trauma It felt to me that Stein had either researched this extremely thoroughly but evidently had spoken to women who had experienced this extreme violence and what it had meant to live with the memory and affect of this crime I may be wrong but the book felt that it had a deeper connection to and empathy with victims of violence rather than some of the lazy depictions I have read Equally Stein succeeds admirably in steering clear of the mawkish having a cool and clearheaded approach to the specifics of the crimes a sense of sympathy to the victims but wholly adhering to the natural aspect of the Scandinavian crime fiction tradition where character and plot are so completely bound up with one another. Bye bye blackbird joe cocker lyrics As well as focussing on the emotional and physical effects of the crimes perpetrated there was also a dizzying amount of detail regarding the forensic investigation written in a very natural and engaging way and not just clumsily shoehorned into the narrative Admittedly those of us who practically inhale crime fiction would be aware of some aspects of forensic detection but I learnt some really interesting stuff along the way in terms of forensic investigation reading a crime scene and the intrinsic correlation of science with intuitive investigation in approaching cold cases In conjunction with the extremely unpredictable Axel Steen and the slow burning tension of a complex and twisting investigation I thought this was a great follow up in the series With the usual precision and sheer readability of a translation by Charlotte Barslund Die For Me is to be recommended Excellent Danish Die for Me is the second book in the Axel Steen series set in Copenhagen and featuring a flawed main character Dark and gritty and perfect for fans who are looking a new Nordic noir crime book to read. Bye bye blackbird etta jones In June 2004 a missing young girl is found in the water at Orsted Park However this one murder remains unsolved leaving DCI Axel Steen with ruined work and personal relationships that will continue to haunt him for years to come Later after the case is considered cold and where there have been no leads to follow up on in quite some time a single DNA match is discovered on a sexual assault victim that matches one found on the young girl s cap To investigate the DNA sample Axel will need to work with some of the individuals whose relationship he previously damaged leading them to discover several assault victims and a serial rapist. Bye bye blackbird liza minnelli Because of the topic of rape and serial rapists some may find this book a little difficult at times During the course of the investigations we see how the police department both competently and incompetently handle these cases through prejudice or for other reasons we watch Axel and other police officers listen to and ask questions of the victim s accounts We also see how the police take statements into account and investigate or don t investigate. Bye bye blackbird luxodor Axel is a flawed character a really flawed character while he is a very competent police detective he also has a drug issue a relationship with his ex wife that still leaves him very torn and is a workaholic To be honest I went back and forth deciding if I liked him or not He would be a decent detective one minute and then in the next chapter he d be an abrasive jerk to his co worker Sometimes it was a bit much and to say he s got some issues is putting it lightly plus his ex wife s boyfriend becomes his boss at the beginning of the book which adds to the drama of his life But I suspect that if this one character is creating a lot of different emotions from me then that means that the author did a nice job of creating a well fleshed out character. Bye bye blackbird lead sheet Overall a nice police procedural that is dark and gritty but one where you also get a chance to take a reader s tour of Copenhagen and learn of new places such as Israels Plads and Norrebro Park just to name a few and where both of which had me going to the Internet for pictures and details. Bye bye blackbird ireal Rating 4 starsThanks to Netgalley and Mirror Books for the advanced reader copy and opportunity to provide an honest review Danish Set in Copenhagen DIE FOR ME is the second in the DCI Axel Steen series and features an annoyingly flawed main character I don t know how many books I have read where the main detective drinks himself into oblivion although this one gets stoned has sex and gets stoned again But the theme does get a little tiring after a while. Bye bye blackbird ireal pro The premise for DIE FOR ME indeed sounded promising but I don t know if something is lost in the translation or I was just frustrated with the politics and the depressing narrative by the main character Axel Steen because it just grated on me The most exciting thing was the Prologue Then came the police politics the morose monloguing by Axel his getting stoned on his days off the ex wife now shacked up with his bossI just lost patience with it. Bye bye blackbird meaning It begins with a missing young girl s body found in the lake in Orsted Park It is clearly a homicide but it s one that remains unsolved leaving DCI Axel Steen both unsettled and haunted for years to come But now a DNA match discovered on a sexual assault victim matches one found on an item belonging to the cold case victim Axel begins investigating the new rape case and discovers there is a predator preying on young women in Copenhagen Had that remained the focus of the story I may have enjoyed it far but as it was the back stabbing of police politics the ex wife now hooked up with Axel s boss the annoying bits that just took away from the actual storyjust ruined it for me I didn t like his ex wife Cecilie nor her lover Deputy Commissioner Jens Jessen I didn t want police politics I didn t want morose monologuing as to where his life has gone wrong I didn t want stoned sex with various women I didn t want back stabbing or nastiness I wanted a good solid crime thriller that gave us a look at both sides of the coin I didn t get it And if it was there I must have missed it A police procedural that is dark and gritty DIE FOR ME may not be for everyone due to its subject matter For some the topic of violent sexual assault and rape may be a little difficult to read. Bye bye blackbird diana krall lyrics I couldn t warm to Axel But then I couldn t warm to any of the characters He could be a competent detective but he just goes about things in an arse about way and added to that is his drug habit not to mention his depressing monologue which were at times just a little too much. Bye bye blackbird etta jones I used to really enjoy Scandi crime but in the last couple of years I have found them to be far too convoluted with totally flawed and unlikable characters Maybe I have had my fill of flawed characters that it just grates on me every time I come across one now The world is depressing enough these days I don t need a depressing main character to make my reads far from enjoyable. Bye bye blackbird crime scene While I didn t enjoy DIE FOR ME many have done so So maybe it s just me It is a chilling read in parts but overall not for me However don t take my word for it as others have thoroughly enjoyed it You never know you just may tooI would like to thank JesperStein NetGalley and MirrorBooks for an ARC of DieForMe in exchange for an honest review. Bye bye blackbird anita desai This review appears on my blog at Danish A serial rapist is terrorising women in Copenhagen He might have killed a young girl Axel Steel is the DI who is investigating There is no evidence or clues to who the rapist might be Steen had been obsessed by a rape case four years ago and that had been blamed for his wife leaving him Now they seem to have DNA evidence that links back to that case. Bye bye blackbird miles davis pdf As the book is translated into English it took me a little while to get into This is also the second book in this series and I have not read any of the previous ones It s fast paced action packed and gripping There s a mixed bunch of characters some you will like some you will loathe Axel Steen is a damaged but fully capable policeman This book can be read as a standalone A great police procedural. Bye bye blackbird line dance I would like to thank NetGalley Mirror Books and the author Jesper Stein for my ARC in exchange for an honest review Danish Axel Steen has always had his problems and it follows him everywhere His divorce with Cecilie and his daughter Emma and her marriage too Jens Jessen was hitting him very hard His hash habit and becoming involved with women such as Dorte Neergaard and Ea Holdt But when he became involved with the murder of a girl who was found in a pond with his old partner John Darling Die For Me is not the story of a city under seige but the story of Axel s return to the unsolved Case that tore him to pieces and ripped his marriage apart It is seemingly linked to a new case by similarities in the modus operandi Of course no one sees the connection but Axel The flip side to the crime story is Axel s face off with Jens his ex wife s new man The story is often told in alternating chapters through their clashing points of view as they spar over one woman Axel still lives for his cases and died over and over again in them Axel is a great character Danish A serial rapist is creating havoc in Copenhagen DI Axel Steen is the investigative lead and what he finds astounds him. Bye bye blackbird jazz pdf A current case he s looking out reminds him of a case from a few years back that has never been solved That particular case cost him his wife daughter and almost his job He s becoming obsesses about solving these cases and so when other case are found. Bye bye blackbird etta jones None of the rapes have ever been connected nor solved mainly due to police ignorance prejudice and extreme incompetence His increasing frustration and anger is causing his former police partner now his boss to question everything that Steen does To make it even harder is his boss boss is now married to Steen s ex wife And there s nothing that man would like better than creating a mess for Steen even forcing him to lose his job. Bye bye blackbird fosse sheet music This is an exacting crime fiction psychological thriller that makes it clear that men who hate women are found at every level of society Well written and translated as much about the victims as an investigation gone wrong it s a real page turner with twists and turns and stand out characters. Bye bye blackbird gene austin lyrics Steen himself is not a real likeable character He is scarred from his previous case Book 1 in the series still has feelings for his ex wife needs pot and booze to get him through his days and nights and rarely says No to any female who s interested The man who married his ex wife is a real jerk constantly looking for ways to sink Steen s career The only likeable character is his young daughter who he gets to see only sporadically. Bye bye blackbird aebersold Many thanks to the author Mirror Books Netgalley for the digital copy of this crime fiction Read and reviewed voluntarily opinions expressed here are unbiased and entirely my own Danish
