Description

A new, dramatic look for Jo Nesbo's iconic Harry Hole detective series in 2022- what we are calling THE YEAR OF HARRY HOLE Harry Hole faces a new rising enemy. 'A page-turner you won't want to put down' Time Out Harry knows he shouldn't get involved. A report of a rare and unusual gun - a type favoured by assassins - being smuggled into the country sparks Detective Harry Hole's interest. Evil is closer to home than he knows. Then a former WW2 Nazi sympathizer is found with his throat cut. Next, someone close to Harry is murdered. Why had she been trying to reach Harry on the night she was killed? As Harry's investigation unfolds, it becomes clear that the killer is hell-bent on serving his own justice. And while the link between the cases remains a mystery, one thing is certain- he must be stopped. But can Harry stop him in time? *JO NESBO HAS SOLD OVER 50 MILLION BOOKS WORLDWIDE* *Watch out for The Jealousy Man, the new Jo Nesbo book, out now*
