Summary

What makes life perfect? Insurance mathematician Henri Koskinen knows the answer because he calculates everything down to the last decimal. And then, Henri is faced with the incalculable.

After suddenly losing his job, Henri inherits an adventure park from his brother - its troubling financial problems included. The worst of these issues appear to originate from big loans taken from criminal quarters...and dangerous men are keen to get their money back.

But what Henri really can't compute is love. He meets Laura, an artist with a joie de vivre and erratic lifestyle that bewilders him. As the criminals go to lengths to collect their debts, Henri finds himself in situations that cannot be pinned down on his spreadsheets....

Gripping

I thoroughly enjoyed this book, although the first chapter didn’t grip me, I persevered and was so glad I did. I found it very entertaining. I was a tad disappointed with the ending. It just seemed a little rushed.

Brilliant

One of the funniest and most inventive stories I’ve ever read! It’s so well written and I can confirm that both the kindle version and audible version are equally good. Just about to start the next one.

Not for me

I absolutely hated this book. I always avoid David Thorpe narrations because he is so jarring, no subtlety to his performances at all. he was certainly distracting reading this. I normally like whimsical humour, but I didn't find this funny or engaging at all. It might be the translation into English which has lost some of the original impact and style. I wouldn't have finished this if it hadn't been required reading for something.

Quite dull

Got a third of the way through and it was just so slow and quite irritating. Disappointed as it was supposed to be great
