He looked at his monitor. A hundred and seventy-five. A hundred and seventy-two. A welcome little gust of wind carried the sound of distant cheering up from the town. It must have been from Ullevål Stadium – there was an important international match this evening. Slovakia or Slovenia. Erlend Vennesla imagined for a few seconds that they had been applauding for him. It was a while since anyone had done that. In Harry Hole, [Nesbo has] created the most complex, compelling and at times frustrating detective... Probably his best yet Cherie Blair, Mail on Sunday The inside of the corner cupboard smelt of old wood, powder residue and gun oil. When the sun shone through the window into the room, a strip of light shaped like an hourglass travelled from the keyhole into the cupboard and, if the sun was at precisely the right angle, there would be a matt gleam to the gun lying on the middle of the shelf. It was a Russian Odessa, a copy of the better-known Stechkin. It was as if the thought stammered, like a displacement in time, like an image being disconnected for a moment. Harry Hole is the main character in Jo Nesbo’s series of ten crime novels. Harry is a police officer with the Oslo crime squad. His mother is deceased, he has a weak relationship with his father and his sister had Down Syndrome.

I’d guess the temperature here is one and a half degrees lower than in town,’ Beate Lønn said, pulling up a number on her mobile phone. He was asleep in there, behind the door. The guarded hospital room smelt of medicine and paint. The monitor beside him registered his heartbeats. Isabelle Skøyen, the Councillor for Social Affairs at Oslo City Hall, and Mikael Bellman, the newly appointed Chief of Police, hoped they would never see him again. Laura would be in bed, but she liked knowing when he would be home from work, so he texted her before putting the car into gear and heading for Lake Marital. Anton didn’t need to look at the satnav. At the entrance to Ullevålseterveien there were four patrol cars, and a bit further away orange-and-white tape showed the way. The novels place Harry in many places in Oslo and give an unabashed view of the city, both good and bad. The Bat Series

Mona. You can’t be on first-name terms with people without having chatted first. What did she tell you?’

A fast-paced crime novel with a great deal of exhilaration and suspense… If you are a fan of Nesbo, Police will not dismay." - Dagbladet (Norway) There were twelve bullets left in the magazine. Three of them had been fired at Kosovo Albanians, rival dope pushers. Only one of the bullets had bitten into flesh. Although the Harry Hole series has not been transferred to the big screen the release of the 2011 film Headhunters, based on the stand alone novel of the same name showed that Nesbo’s stories are screen worthy.

Nesbø is one of today's most interesting thriller writers, a 100% buy-today-read-tonight delight' Lee Child Boasts the customary ability to render attempts at work and sleep futile until it is finished Jake Kerridge, Daily Telegraph Another sweltering month in Charlotte, another boatload of mysteries past and present for overworked, overstressed forensic anthropologist Temperance Brennan. A surprise ending promises a fresh start for a series that had appeared to end with its previous novel. This being the fifth novel in the series Jo Nesbo expertly wove the number 5 into the story. For example, the number of days between murders is 5 and the victims were all murdered on the fifth floor. There are many more instances of the number being used. It gives an exciting under layer to an already enthralling story. The Doctor Proctor Series

There’ll be even more officers here soon. The body has just been found. Are you taking over from me?’ Even more. And yet they had given him overtime. Anton examined the officer closer.

Beate Lønn -nal nem bánt kesztyűs kézzel a szerző. Számomra ő mindenképpen hiányozni fog a következő részekből.Resistance is futile: Nesbo has some rare, Ancient Mariner-type gift for holding his readers completely in thrall until he has finished with us Jake Kerridge, Sunday Express And suddenly he was up. The road levelled out, and Lake Maridal was in front of him. He slowed down. He was out of the town. It was absurd, in fact, that after fifteen minutes’ hard cycling from the centre of a European capital city you were surrounded by farms, fields and dense forest with paths disappearing into the dusk. The sweat was making his scalp itch beneath the charcoal-grey Bell helmet – which alone had cost the same as the bike he had bought as a sixth-birthday present for his granddaughter, Line Marie. But he kept the helmet on. Most deaths among cyclists were caused by head injuries.
