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...

Critics Review
-
[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
Booklist

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
Financial Times
-
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
Mail on Sunday
-
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
Forbes, Russia
-
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
Dagbladet
-
Skilfully plotted…Nesbo…uses the vast, cold landscapes of Norway to excellent effect in building dread
UK Press Syndication
-
Nesbo indulges his unique, deliciously horrible vision of the world once again
Daily Mirror
-
The twists play out brilliantly [in Knife]; the translation by Neil Smith is flawless. This is the king of Norwegian crime on top form
Observer
-
Nesbo works his magic as this angsty thriller heads to its tense denouement. Fans of the Scandi crime sensation won’t be disappointed
