An absolute corker, highly improbable, hugely enjoyable, an ingenious blend of Nordic noir and hygge crime * Saga *
Another delightfully mischievous whodunnit from the author of Helle and Death * the i *
One to be enjoyed * Belfast Telegraph *
Will find favour with Conan Doyle fans thanks to Jensen's bravura plotting and satisfying conclusion * The Crack *
Downbeat and funny at the same timeOskar Jensen's writing is a delightful mix of classic crime fiction and Robert Galbraith's Cormoran Strike -- Ian Moore, author of DEATH AND CROISSANTS
Witty, compelling and what an intriguing fiendish murder -- J.M. Hall, author of A SPOONFUL OF MURDER
Rogues, rascals and an oversized dog - Helle's Hound has it all. The most delicious murder I've read all year -- Marion Todd, author of OLD BONES LIE
A triumphant return for Torben! Both his sleuthing and his relationship with Leyla have gone from strength to strength since the fateful death in book one, and I thoroughly enjoyed his musings. Charming and fun -- Sam Holland, author of THE ECHO MAN
A brilliantly entertaining murder mystery with a fiendishly fun puzzle and characters I completely fell for. I'm quickly becoming a firm fan of the Torben Helle series -- Philippa East, author of LITTLE WHITE LIES
Oskar Jensen masterfully blends wit and suspense in Helle's Hound, delivering a modern homage to the Golden Age whodunnit. A must-read for fans of classic crime fiction -- Joanna Wallace, author of YOU'D LOOK BETTER AS A GHOST
