When the detective in charge of a brutal murder case enlists a hypnotist to help solve the crime, it looks like the solution to this icy Swedish mystery is going to hinge on matters of hypnotic suggestion, false memory, and patient-doctor control but no, in the end you realise that hypnotism has been injected into the story as a red herring, that it doesn't factor into the mystery in any meaningful way, and in fact just provides a means for one crime witness to be both comatose and communicative.
