Aroview: This second helping of Jo Nesbo's blackly comic tales has the hapless sole survivor of a strip club massacre taken in for questioning where his bizarre story is met with some disbelief.

Though just as twisty in plot, this is more generic than Nesbo's HEADHUNTERS, with its grisly gangster clowning and low-life archetypes slugging it out over the mandatory bag o' loot.
