Series 2: Lesson 6 Challenge

In Novelist, I did a search for bestseller The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo and then searched the appeal factors.

The filter for Scandinavian Crime Fiction surprised me.
The search 
Mysteries, Character-driven, Intricately plotted, Suspenseful
had 311 results. 

Scandinavian Crime Fiction as the only requirement had 315 results.
