You cannot imagine how excited I was to see that Harry Hole was back! I was so sure that Jo Nesbø had decided to move on to other things after the last book but thankfully I was wrong and here is Harry called back from his quiet job as a college lecturer to chase the one who got away.
And this is not just any Harry Hole book but one that is up there with his best work. Harry has become a legend in his own life time. He is still just as flawed, still an alcoholic, still unable to completely relate to anyone but also still a brilliant detective.
This is another series that needs to be read in sequence in order to appreciate it fully. Many characters are there from previous books including Rakel and Oleg and one of the best things about this book is to see the way these people have grown and changed. The action is frequently full on and scary, interspersed with lots of interesting police work.
The ending is just brilliant and guess what! There's a strong indication on the very last page that there has to be another book.
