*DETECTIVE HOLE IS NOW A MAJOR NETFLIX SERIES*
Detective Hole returns in a heart-racing thriller like no other.
A dark night. A blood-curdling terror. A killer shot at point-blank range.
Evening shoppers gather at a public concert in the heart of Oslo - then a shot rings out and one of the singers falls to the floor, dead.
Detective 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, Detective Hole finds his troubles have only just begun.
Now the clock is ticking before he kills again.
Featuring a sneak preview of the new Detective Hole thriller KILL SHOT.

THE NEXT STIEG LARSSON * Independent *
The Redeemer rocks! Jo Nesbo is my new favorite thriller writer and Harry Hole my new hero. This book had my pulse in the red zone from start to finish * Michael Connelly *
Nesbo is in a class of his own * Evening Standard *
Nesbo's fourth novel [and it] proves to be as brilliant as his other three...grimly realistic...an engrossing mystery * The Scotsman *
Even when you're positive that the mystery is entirely done and dusted, it invariably turns out that the pragmatic Detective Harry Hole has managed to stay three steps ahead and there's more to uncover * Time Out *
The world is finally catching on to the dark delights of Scandinavian crime fiction, and Norwegian Jo Nesbo is up there at the head of the pack. This is chilling, spectacular stuff, and anyone looking for serious, and seriously compelling crime writing need look no further * Mark Billingham *
Interesting and exciting... Hole and his author provide unusually good reading * Literary Review *
Thrilling * Daily Express *
The Redeemer is an enjoyable chilly manhunt through Oslo's wintery streets * The Observer *
Jo Nesbo has been gradually climbing the competitive league of Nordic crime writers. With The Redeemer he's touching the summit * The Times *
