Synopsis

There's a new killer on the streets.

A woman is found murdered after an internet date. The marks left on her body show the police that they are dealing with a particularly vicious killer.

He's in your house.

He's in your room.

Under pressure from the media to find the murderer, the force know there's only one man for the job. But Harry Hole is reluctant to return to the place that almost took everything from him. Until he starts to suspect a connection between this killing and his one failed case.

He's out for blood.

When another victim is found, Harry realises he will need to put everything on the line if he's to finally catch the one who got away.

Probably the most anticipated crime release of 2017, and after a pause of several years, The Thirst marked Jo Nesbo’s return to the character that made his name - Harry Hole.
