The Leopard by Jo Nesbo
In the depths of winter, two young women are found dead, both drowned in their own blood. Inspector Harry Hole, deeply traumatised by an investigation that threatened the lives of those he holds most dear, initially wants nothing to do with the case but his instincts take over when a prominent MP is found brutally murdered.
Comparisons with Stieg Larsson have been made, but Nesbo's plots move quickly, carry more punch, and really do keep you guessing to the final page * Daily Mirror *
A cracking good thriller..that will keep you gripped to the last page * Guardian *
Outstanding... Probably the best big crime novel you could lay your hands on this year * BBC Radio 4 *
Nesbo's novels keep going when you think there can't be any more twists to follow. Scenes switch from the avalanche-threatened ravines and mountain cabins of back-country Norway, close to oil-rich Stavanger and metropolitan Oslo, to an active volcano in Africa * Times Literary Supplement *
Original Norwegian noir...absorbing -- Tom Huddleston * Time Out *
