Jo Nesbø Knife Harry Hole is not in a good place. Rakel – the only woman he’s ever loved – has ended it with him, permanently. He’s been given a chance for a new start with the Oslo Police but it’s in the cold case office, when what he really wants is to be investigating cases he suspects have ties to Svein Finne, the serial rapist and murderer who Harry helped put behind bars. And now, Finne is free after a decade-plus in prison – free, and Harry is certain, unreformed and ready to take up where he left off. But things will get worse. When Harry wakes up the morning after a drunken Ascehoug 2019 blackout, with blood on his hands, it’s only the very beginning of what will be a 520 pages waking nightmare the likes of which even he could never have imagined.

  • The Redbreast
    Jo Nesbø The Redbreast In one of the most ambitious and broad-scoped crime novels ever written in Scandinavia, Jo Nesbø tells a heartbreaking story of war, love and betrayal. Touching the sordid part of Norway’s past with a boldness that few other writers possess, Nesbø spins a fantastic detective story around the “front men” – the young Norwegians who fought for Hitler, and their idealism that was punished by their countrymen. Thus, this thriller – a chase-against-the-clock, as exciting as The Jackal – also becomes a deep and fearless investigation of the true meaning of betrayal. Aschehoug 2000 481 pages The Redbreast was awarded with the Booksellers’ Prize (Bokhandlerprisen) 2000, as well Original title: Rødstrupe as the special award ‘Best Norwegian Crime Novel of All Time’ (Tidenes Beste Norske Krimroman).
