Author of the Week
Norwegian author Jo Nesbo is best known for his intricately plotted, gritty, and thrilling mystery fiction. His twist-filled, fast-paced crime stories frequently feature the personally troubled and substance-abusing Detective Harry Hole as he wades through the seedy underbelly of Oslo to solve brutal murders. While Nesbo's haunting stories contain explicit depictions of disturbing violence, his gripping page-turners also demonstrate a keen and sensitive understanding of the social realities of poverty, drug addiction, and organized crime in urban environments.
