Product Information

Nearly ten pages into Killing Moon, I wondered whether Nesbo had always depicted women in such a cruel, hateful way. When the body of one of them is found with fresh stitches along her hairline the hunt is on to find a murderer with very particular tastes. Tre år med sidesprang til andre krimforfattere i håp om å finne noe i nærheten av Jo Nesbøs kaliber. There’s a formula there, too—one built around the visceral thrill of discovering new threads, trying to work out how each one ties into the whole tangled knot, and following in the footsteps of someone eminently braver and bolder than me.

By Act II, I was sort of ticked that it took a particular sharp turn, then by Act III, I was over it completely.This book is, at times, a touch grim, the truth behind what happens and why a little … how should I put this? I also hope - for the general safety of the planet - that (rather like Grisham's contempt for actual law) Nesbo's biological data is invented for the sake of a good story rather than real! Jo Nesbø non sbaglia un colpo e Harry Hole è sempre il migliore, nonostante sia precipitato in una spirale autodistruttiva da cui non vuole uscire.

There are crime novels in which the protagonist is as fascinating as the plot so that no matter how mundane the crime may be, we want to spend our time with those bleakly funny, insatiably curious problem-solvers. When a body is found in the forest, the police make a horrifying discovery: her scalp has been removed and sewn back on. In Oslo, two girls have disappeared and been found murdered and one of the suspects is a well-known real estate magnate. The dark nature of Scandinavian crime thrillers is not lost on the reader, nor is the seamlessness of the translation. Si no escribiera tan bien -aunque tampoco rompe costuras- lo habría dejado (aun así no es tan denso como el anterior, El reino creo que se llamaba, eso también hay que señalarlo.When Tom goes missing no one believes Richard when he tells them that he saw Tom being sucked into the receiver of a phone in a phone booth. I loved the cohort collected by Harry to assist him in solving the case: Stale Aune, Oystein and Truls.

He’s run away to LA, his credit card is maxed out and he’s drinking in a dive bar with an actress in her 60s who owes money to a Mexican gang.
