2000s: Harry Hole doesn’t want this case, but the case wants him
2000s: Harry Hole doesn’t want this case, but the case wants him
A woman is found murdered after an internet date. The marks left on her body show the police that they are dealing with a particularly vicious killer.
Under pressure from the media to find the murderer, the force want Harry Hole on the case but he is reluctant to return to the place that almost took everything from him. Until he starts to suspect a connection between this killing and his one failed case.
When another victim is found, Harry realises he has no choice but to get involved. Not that he isn’t already.
“The young police Chief had declared that the media and crime films such as the one in questions created a false picture of Oslo, and that during his time as Chief of Police the city was safer than ever.
The new Munch Museum and Public Library were starting to take shape next o the Opera House. In a country of fishermen and farmers, which had spent the past two hundred years sending any dodgy deviants with artistic ambitions to Copenhagen and europe, the capital city would soon ressemble a city of culture”
This time the action takes place a little north of the city where the sky is a little clearer and people can take time to think and escape the city for a while. A city which is changing – where people with not much money could live quite comfortably but now which ressembles London or Stockholm where house prices are concerned.
The Official Harry Hole tour should be on any booktrail list!
