In the depths of winter, a killer stalks the city streets. His victims are two young women, both found with twenty-four inexplicable puncture wounds, both drowned in their own blood. The crime scenes offer no clues, the media is reaching fever pitch, and the police are running out of options. There is only one man who can help them, and he doesn't want to be found. Deeply traumatised by an investigation that threatened the lives of those he holds most dear, Inspector Harry Hole has lost himself in the squalor of Hong Kong's opium dens. But with his father seriously ill in hospital, Harry reluctantly agrees to return to Oslo. He has no intention of working on the case, but his instinct takes over when an MP is found brutally murdered in a city park. The victims appear completely unconnected to one another, but it's not long before Harry makes a discovery: the women all spent the night in an isolated mountain hostel. And someone is picking off the guests one by one. A heart-stopping thriller from the critically-acclaimed Jo Nesb , The Leopard is an international bestseller that will grip you until the final page.

Doctor Proctor's fart powder

Detective Harry Hole arrives in a steaming hot Bangkok. But it's work, not pleasure. The Norwegian ambassador has been found dead in a seedy motel room, and no witnesses have come forward. The ambassador had close ties to the Norwegian prime minister, and to avoid a scandal Harry is sent there to hush up the case. But he quickly discovers that there is much more going on behind the scenes and very few people willing to talk. When Harry lays hands on some CCTV footage that will help him unravel what happened that night, things only get more complicated. The man who gave him the tape goes missing, and Harry realises that failing to solve a murder case is by no means the only danger in Bangkok.

Snemanden

Sorgenfri

Flagermusmanden

Roy är en mekaniker som lever ett enkelt liv uppe i bergen. Men friden störs när hans lillebror Carl återvänder till barndomstrakterna med en ny fru och högtflygande planer. Carl är en entreprenör och vill bygga ett stort hotell för att återuppliva bygden, men hemligheter från brödernas barndom gör sig snart påminda. Roy har alltid skyddat Carl, men kanske har lillebror gått för långt för att Roy ska kunna hjälpa honom denna gång. Ska han ta vara på sin broder? Jo Nesbøs nya fristående thriller är precis som älskade Sonen ett ödesmättat familjedrama med arketypiska drag, med en mångbottnad och gastkramande intrig som kan mäta sig med de bästa böckerna om Harry Hole.
