HARRY HOLE'S DEADLIEST ENEMY IS BACK... AND OUT FOR BLOOD

Harry is in a bad place: Rakel has left him, he's working cold cases and notorious murderer Svein Finne is back on the streets.

THE FIRST KILLER HARRY PUT BEHIND BARS IS OUT TO GET HIM.

Harry is responsible for the many years Finne spent in prison but now he's free and ready to pick up where he left off.

A MAN LIKE HARRY BETTER WATCH HIS BACK.

When Harry wakes up with blood on his hands, and no memory of what he did the night before, he knows everything is only going to get worse...

Critic reviews

[Knife] may be Nesbo’s best storytelling yet. It’s not just clever; it’s diabolical, and let’s be glad it is, because the corkscrewing plot provides a measure of relief from the pain on view in this uncompromisingly intense and brilliant novel
Knife shows Nesbo back on form… This is a police procedural that breaks the bounds of the format with abandon… Nesbo manhandles the reader into contented…submission
Knife sees the return of Harry’s old nemesis Svein Finne… The plot never goes the way you think it will, as Nesbo delights in playing tricks on the reader
This is Scandi noir as dark as obsidian with an emotional wreck of a protagonist
You can imagine the worst (and you will probably be right), but the brilliant Jo Nesbo will surprise you anyway. Knife is the most unpredictable novel in the [Harry Hole] series
The sharp-as-a-knife Nesbo at his best. A first-class mix of thriller and murder mystery... Nesbo has done it again... Knife is a fantastic and exhilarating suspense novel
Skilfully plotted…Nesbo…uses the vast, cold landscapes of Norway to excellent effect in building dread
Nesbo indulges his unique, deliciously horrible vision of the world once again
The twists play out brilliantly [in Knife]; the translation by Neil Smith is flawless. This is the king of Norwegian crime on top form
Nesbo works his magic as this angsty thriller heads to its tense denouement. Fans of the Scandi crime sensation won’t be disappointed

Thoroughly enjoyable. Nesbo thankfully plays fewer tricks on the reader than in Police but keeps it twisty and complex. My dad says this is the best book of the whole series, I’d be close to agreeing. Sean Barrett is superb as ever.

One of the best yet

The story is fantastic.

But I was not able to listen to this because of the Narrater. Difficult to understand with the heavy accent and unclear articulation. I ended up reading the book instead.

Another amazing story but a horrible Narrater
