Just finished the Princess of Burundi by Kjell Eriksson.

It was a pleasant read, could have been much better. The suspense heightened in the end, but I was always waiting for the big surprise and it never really came. Since it is one in a series, I'm not sure if there is more to come as far as some of the back stories.
I never really understood the tie in of the Princess of Burundi and the fish with the rest of the story -- it almost seemed unnecessary for the story, but since it was built into the title it should have been more integrated. Overall 3.5 out of 5.
