opinion
As a native of Vienna, I can actually do nothing more than the books by Wolf Haas to like. Haas writes exactly how to talk, which loosely means fun and informal, there are already some words omitted Something like:..
"red light of the now banned Bimbo is of course even more so in red across the intersection down. Because this is a bit of a protest from the rescue drivers have been. Against the legislature. Because you risk your life every day for others, that you may in time of the road scrapes before snatches the vulture, but do you think the legislature supports you? (...) Or that it allows you through the red cross? Forget it. "(P. 6-7)
Now you may ask, why the races Bimbo, by the way only a nickname of a rescue driver, so. Does he have to save just before someone said vultures? Fast. It must be timely come to the hospital to pick up a donor liver. This is an end justifies the means, one might think, there may miss a cat run over or a couple of mirrors are cleared away. Of course, only if this is a true donor liver is, and not the insider name for a loaf bread at the hospital's own hot dog stand. Weil: Small portion = donor liver, large Portin = donor heart. Got that? In this manner
it is asking, of course, there is a murder and agencies that are not particularly exciting, and since this is for me the first book by Haas is to me the investigators burner too little to grasp but as long as the abuse is running , but is actually all right.
Conclusion: Very funny and sympathetic, but not for those who place high value on either the written language, Vienna and Viennese do not like, take everything too seriously, or expect, especially an exciting thriller.
