Opmerkingen
1. Niet geweldig maar toch goed - Het duurt even voor de vaart erin komt bij dit derde deel uit de reeks over advocate Emelie en ex-crimineel Teddy. Maar liefst verhaallijnen heeft Jens Lapidus verwerkt in dit boek. Knap, want ze zijn goed met elkaar vervlochten. Het nadeel is dat het even duurt voordat hij ze allemaal heeft geopend. Gelukkig schrijft Lapidus onderhoudend, daardoor wordt het nooit saai. Maar tegen het eind moet hij wel met zevenmijlslaarzen door het verhaal om al die verhaallijnen sluitend te krijgen. Afraffelen, zou je kunnen zeggen: er gebeurt veel dat we maar half meemaken als lezers. Maar de spanning vergoedt veel. Wat blijft hangen is dat je een spannende crimi hebt gelezen die overtuigt. Het kenmerk van een goed boek is dat de zwaktes niet opvallen. Zo’n boek is Topman precies. Je hebt zin om de volgende Lapidus open te slaan.
