The Devil's Star

by Don Bartlett, Jo Nesbø
The Devil's Star
The Devil's Star

Norwegian noir: gritty detective chases a twisted killer.

If you're into dark, intricately plotted crime thrillers, then "The Devil's Star" by Jo Nesbø is a must-read. Harry Hole, the protagonist, is a compelling character whose personal demons add depth to his pursuit of a chillingly methodical serial killer. Nesbø's writing is as sharp as Oslo's cold, with twists that will make the hairs on your neck stand up. Perfect for those who love a good mix of psychological suspense and police procedural.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

A young woman is murdered in her Oslo flat. One finger has been severed from her left hand, and behind her eyelid is secreted a tiny red diamond in the shape of a five-pointed star - a pentagram, the devil's star. Detective Harry Hole is assigned to the case with his long-time adversary Tom Waaler and initially wants no part in it. But Harry is already on notice to quit the force and is left with little alternative but to drag himself out of his alcoholic stupor and get to work. A wave of similar murders is on the horizon. An emerging pattern suggests that Oslo has a serial killer on its hands, and the five-pointed devil's star is key to solving the riddle.
