Szokásos fordulatos, triplacsavaros krimi, izgalmas, letehetetlen. Tegnap éjjel nem bírtam abbahagyni, muszáj volt hajnali 1-ig olvasni, csak hogy befejezzem. :) Azért szerencsére nem álmodtam rosszakat. Then there is the police academy and a young girl there who seems overly obsessed with the police murders and serial killers in particular. As the story unwinds she might have more to do with the murders than anyone can imagine.

Anton nodded slowly, picturing it all. Two policemen ringing the doorbell, a man and a woman. The officers coughing, looking at the wife with that grave expression which is meant to tell her what they will soon repeat in words, impossible words. The wife’s face, resistant, not wanting to hear, but then it seems to turn inside out, shows her inner emotions, shows everything. The image of Laura, his wife, appeared. The gun still smelt of the last three shots, which had hit the head and chest of the ex-police officer Harry Hole during his investigation into the above-mentioned murder of Gusto Hanssen. And the crime scene had been the same: Hausmanns gate 92.There is someone killing police officers. That person is killing them at the scenes of previous murders that wen't unsolved. The murders are brutal. The person is bludgeoned almost beyond recognition and then killed. His unique style, the ingenious plots, woven in with gritty dialogue, action, strong characterisation, the deadpan humour laced with red herrings along with religious and moral undertones, have meant that since The Snowman, Nesbo has fast become my favourite writer. Like many, before long, I'd read everything that had been translated.

As usual, the brilliant Nesbo is several steps ahead of you in this endlessly twisting, multi-layered thriller

Akaratlanul is végig izgulok olyan dolgok miatt, amikért nem is igazán kellene. Vagy mégis? Vagy mégsem? For those unfamiliar with Jo Nesbo and his flawed, relentless detective, Harry Hole (rhymes with ole'), you may find yourself taking a vacation just to read this series as you can't just read one book. Nesbo goes to dark places, creating scenarios vividly violent. The first murder in this book is horrific, one of those scenes that could remain with the reader for a long time. In one of David Lindsey's earlier books there was a fight scene with knives that may stand alone for sheer brutality, but Nesbo doesn't shy away from writing about the worst of painful death. This book may be his best - there are crooked cops, sadistic killers, and scenes creating a sense of dread movies create by lighting, music, shadows, and scary places. Nesbo can creep you out while still remaining in the realm of "the possible," ugly as those possibilities often are. However, there is also a "let's digress" aspect to these books. One of the creepier sub-plots is the sense that something bad is about to happen to a particular child. The reader doesn't know there is any danger but I still flinched whenever the plot shifted to this child. The reader does not want that child to miss the bus or be alone in the house. Nesbo’s best since The Snowman… Particularly strong in portraying the interaction between cops Marcel Berlins, The Times Harry Hole · Katrine Bratt · Beate Lønn · Mikael Bellman · Ståle Aune · Truls Berntsen Helyszínek népszerűség szerint Mona. You can’t be on first-name terms with people without having chatted first. What did she tell you?’

Jo Nesbo's is not trying to renew the crime genre. He doesn't need to, 'cause he is one of those who masters the genre the very best, whether we're looking at the shelves of Norwegian or translated crime writers." - Aftenbladet (Norway) Forget about solving all these crimes; the signal triumph here is (spoiler) the heroine’s survival. He lifted his coffee to his mouth. What did she know about his civil status? Was she insinuating something, about him and Mona, for example? That he had driven her home a couple of times after her shift and it hadn’t stopped there? A killer is stalking Oslo's streets. Police officers are being slain at the scenes of crimes they once investigated, but failed to solve. The murders are brutal, the media reaction hysterical.Come on, Bjørn. He’s worked on murder investigations before,’ said Beate Lønn. ‘Drammen, wasn’t it?’ During a recent talk, the writer primarily describes himself as an "entertainer" and this is precisely what Police does. This book is impossible to put down, it's difficult to leave the world of Nesbo"s astonishing imagination. So be warned: life simply goes on hold! 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 Beate Lønn patted the shoulder of the trembling officer. ‘Off you go then, Simon. Don’t tell anyone I said this, but I suggest a strong drink and then bed.’

He thinks he may have discovered it when he invents the most powerful fart powder known to man. Of course the powder cannot get into the wrong hands, which leads to a myriad of wildly imaginative adventures. As dark as Harry Hole can be this series is a laugh out loud joy to read. 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. In the depths of winter a killer stalks the city streets. Two women are found drowned in their own blood. A third woman is hanged from a diving board. Agreed,’ Rasta Hat said, swigging a mouthful from the Thermos cup. ‘No skin discoloration yet. So somewhere The Devil’s Star is the fifth in the Harry Hole series but it has the distinction of being the first of the Jo Nesbo series to have been translated into English. The story involves a young woman found dead in an Oslo flat with a finger from her left hand severed.A gyors traumafeldolgozás az alacsony intelligenciával bíró emberekre jellemző. – Aune belekortyolt a sörbe. – Csak úgy mondom. But this time, Harry can't help ... For years, detective Harry Hole has been at the center of every major criminal investigation in Oslo. His dedication to his job and his brilliant insights have saved the lives of countless people. But now, with those he loves most facing terrible danger, Harry is not in a position to protect anyone. The crime scenes offer no clues, the media is reaching fever pitch, and the police are running out of options. Even more. And yet they had given him overtime. Anton examined the officer closer.
