*DETECTIVE HOLE IS SOON TO BE A MAJOR NETFLIX SERIES*

Harry can't trust his own memory.

A man is caught on CCTV, shooting dead a cashier at a bank. Detective Harry Hole begins his investigation, but after dinner with an old flame wakes up with no memory of the past 12 hours.

Someone wants him out of this picture.

Then the girl is found dead in mysterious circumstances and he begins to receive threatening emails: is someone trying to frame him for her death?

And they'll stop at nothing to fulfil their bloodlust...

As Harry fights to clear his name, the bank robberies continue with unparalleled savagery...

You absolutely know that Harry will come through for you but along the way he will take you on a roller coaster ride of mistakes, bad judgement, wrong turns and the odd bender. This all makes for a riveting read and you find yourself doing the literary equivalent of shouting at the television! Harry......what are you doing? Harry Hole is one of the most interesting characters I have met (read). In real life you would wonder how he gets by and yet Jo Nesbo writes in such a way that he is so 'real' you think perhaps you are missing something and that maybe this is the way to be. As a hero he has many faults but you cannot help but admire the inner voice that somehow keeps him on the straight and narrow. The story is deftly paced, building twists and turns into the plot with effortless ease. I find myself waiting for the next story and dare I say it the inevitable screenplay. Now there's a question - who would you want to play Harry?

This was great. My fourth in the series and probably the best to date. Harry Hole does what he does best - just being Harry Hole. I look forward to number five.

Nesbo on cracking form
