Thermal paper turns dark

The newly elected Russian president is under life-threatening danger, but luckily Finnish spetsnaz Viktor Kärppä is on the tail of the possible assassins. At first, I was well prepared to condemn the thriller because - in general - the Finns can't make anything of their own without ripping off Norwegian, Danish or Swedish intense Scandinavian crime noir, but there was a silver lining there somewhere. Of course it was at times a bit awkward and totally average and naive, but at least they tried.
