DETECTIVE HOLE IS NOW A MAJOR NETFLIX SERIES - JO NESBO HAS SOLD OVER 60 MILLION BOOKS WORLDWIDE

Contains Phantom, The Devil's Star, The Leopard, and The Redeemer.

Harry Hole is a genuine anti-hero: an impossible character, yet impossible not to like. According to his superiors, Harry is both the Oslo Crime Squad’s most brilliant detective and its most frustrating. He struggles with authority, especially when bureaucracy prevents him from doing what’s right for the people of Oslo and the victims who suffer at the hands of violent criminals. Harry is nevertheless revered by his colleagues, not only for his deductive powers and uncanny ability to think like the killer he’s hunting, but because his high moral standards and pronounced sense of justice often lead him in the right direction.

In his personal life, things are just as complicated. Harry is conflicted by his relationship with Rakel, the single mother whom he fell in love with and who has since walked in and out of his life at irregular intervals owing to Harry’s workaholic tendencies. Harry has also developed a close relationship with Rakel’s son Oleg, to whom he has become a strong father figure. Like Harry’s little sister Sis, Oleg brings light to Harry’s existence – and life, at times, really does seem to come together for Inspector Hole. But a case always comes in to turn everything upside down.

Included Titles

Phantom

Harry Hole is in trouble. The police don’t want him back…

After the horrors of a case that nearly cost him his life, Harry Hole left Oslo and the police force far behind him. Now he’s back, but the case he’s come to investigate is already closed, and the suspect is already behind bars.

The criminals don’t want him back… Denied permission to reopen the investigation, Harry strikes out on his own, quickly discovering a trail of violence and mysterious disappearances apparently unnoticed by the police. At every turn, Harry is faced with a wall of silence.

But Harry is not the only one interested in the case. From the moment he steps off the plane, someone is watching his every move. …Someone wants him silenced

The Devil's Star

THE MARK OF THE DEVIL. A young woman is murdered in her flat, and a tiny red diamond in the shape of a five-pointed star is found behind her eyelid.

THE SIGN OF A KILLER. Detective Harry Hole is assigned to the case, alongside his long-time adversary Tom Waaler, and initially wants no part in it. But Harry is already on his final warning and has little alternative but to drag himself out of his alcoholic stupor when it becomes apparent that Oslo has a serial killer on its hands.

IS THIS AN EVIL THAT ONLY HARRY HOLE CAN STOP?

The Leopard

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.

YOU ARE ALLOWING THIS KILLING TO GO ON. The crime scenes offer no clues, the media is reaching fever pitch, and the police are running out of options.

IT’S TIME THIS WAS STOPPED… There is only one man who can help them catch the killer. But Inspector Harry Hole doesn’t want to be found.

…BECAUSE I HAVE APPOINTED THE NEXT VICTIM.

The Redeemer

A freezing December night. Christmas shoppers have gathered to listen to a Salvation Army carol concert. Then a shot rings out, and one of the singers falls to the floor, dead.

A blood-curdling terror. Detective Harry Hole and his team are called in to investigate, but have little to work with – there is no immediate suspect, no weapon, and no motive. But when the assassin discovers he’s shot the wrong man, Harry finds his troubles have only just begun.

Now the clock is ticking before he kills again.
