Yours Until Death by Gunnar Staalesen
An unbearably tense thriller of revenge, murder, bereavement and the destructive force of passion
The Varg Veum series stands alongside Connelly, Camilleri and others, who are among the very best modern exponents of the poetic yet tough detective story with strong, classic plots; a social conscience; and perfect pitch in terms of a sense of place * Euro Crime *
Undoubtedly, one of the finest Nordic novelists in the tradition of such masters as Henning Mankell -- Barry Forshaw * Independent *
An upmarket Philip Marlowe -- Maxim Jakubowski
Among the most popular Norwegian crime writers * Observer *
In the best tradition of sleuthery * The Times *
