When the Devil Holds the Candle

Is this really a mystery? (Spoilers!)

Zipp should have reacted more promptly, Skarre as well, even Sejer should have realised at the first sight how deranged Irma was although it was already too late.
Zipp was a very bad liar and I wish he would have been pressed more to reveal all he knew. Although, it was late for Andreas, still alive but most probably totally crippled for lifetime...

I like the character of Skarre quite a bit, but I also found his police work in this book frustratingly shoddy. I guess the reader should be frustrated by knowing that Andreas is alive in Irma's basement and that Skarre lets so much time pass without doing anything, but it just seems to me that when Irma comes to him and basically says that she knows where he is, he really should have taken this more seriously.
Anyway, if anyone has any thoughts about these or any other aspects of this book, I'd like to hear them!
