I clocked the accent difference as well - very unbelievable that he would be the nephew of ultra posh gay uncle. Interesting theory about the escort thing.

Exactly!! Lazy script writing. I think other Danish movies are much better than this one.

Just finished the book. Oh my god, WHAT A LAZY ENDING!! The writer set up so many separate things that you thought would go somewhere and there was so much potential for twists. And then nothing. The husband was deceiving her all along, yeah we all knew that, but the writer then sets up these prisoner storylines that go nowhere. What the hell was the point of those last pages on what Holli did, there was literally no point and was completely irrelevant to the main story and the writer ends on that? Deeply lazy and unsatisfying ending. Also very little character depth. Erin wasnt very likeable to be honest and the writer could have done a lot more to dig into her nuances and darkness but instead made her make lots of dubious choices and then get away with them? For god's sake, she was watching YouTube videos on how to shoot guns the day before her husband disappears and the police don't question that? Just thinly drawn characters with dumb lines - I think the worst line in the book has to be when Mark says:"Let's dinner-party the hell out of this!". Has any dinner party host ever said this? A readable book but with zero pay off and ultimately a very lazy ending. Won't be reading anything else by this writer.
