Jo Nesbo is one of the world's bestselling crime writers. When commissioned to write a memoir about life on the road with his band, Di Derre, he instead came up with the plot for his first Harry Hole crime novel, The Bat. His books The Leopard, Phantom, Police, The Son, The Thirst, Macbeth and Knife have all since topped the Sunday Times charts. He's an international number one bestseller and his books are published in 50 languages, selling over 55 million copies around the world. Neil Smith has translated many acclaimed Norwegian and Swedish novels, including books by Fredrik Backman and Leif G. W. Persson's The Dying Detective, winner of the CWA International Dagger 2017. He lives in Norfolk.
An extremely gruesome journey to the darker recesses of human
nature, this grisly treat will delight Nesbo’s fans
*Mirror*
It’s a big-boned, Technicolor epic in the current Nesbo style,
starting adagio and ending accelerando, but with the kind of close
psychological character readings that distinguished his early
work
*Guardian*
An epic tale that will delight fans of the bestselling series…
There is always a risk that if you resurrect a much-loved series
after a long break it will not reach its previous highs. But The
Thirst is Nesbo at his glorious best with even the minor characters
wonderfully drawn. This tense, nerve-shredding tale is impossible
to put down as it hurtles towards a stunning finale. Nesbo is one
of the best thriller writers on the planet
*Daily Express*
Gripping from the get-go, deliciously dark and expertly plotted,
this is Nesbo at his brilliant best
*Heat*
Expertly plotted with vividly drawn characters, frenetic police
chases and philosophising villains [...] Expect to be thoroughly
entertained
*Crime Fiction Lover*
