(2000)First that I have read by this author who is compared to Steig Larson, but he is from Norway. This book is his third, but the first in English translation. Starts slow, but very good finish as inspector Harry Hole tries to stop the assassination of the Norwegian Crown Prince by a WW II Norwegian who had fought for the Nazis. The story early on switches from the war to present day and at times gets bogged down, only to discover that it is crucial to the discovery of who is actually behind several murders and is planning to kill the Prince. Publishers WeeklyStarred Review. Shifting effortlessly between the last days of WWII on the Eastern front and modern day Oslo, Norwegian Nesb (The Devil's Star) spins a complex tale of murder, revenge and betrayal. A recovering alcoholic recently reassigned to the Norwegian Security Service, Insp. Harry Hole begins tracking Sverre Olsen, a vicious neo-Nazi who escaped prosecution on a technicality. But what starts as a quest to put Olsen behind bars soon explodes into a race to prevent an assassination. As Hole struggles to stay one step ahead of Olsen and his gang of skinheads, Nesb¨ takes the reader back to WWII, as Norwegians fighting for Hitler wage a losing battle on the Eastern front. When the two story lines finally collide, it's up to Hole to stop a man hell-bent on carrying out the deadly plan he hatched half a century ago in the trenches. Perfectly paced and painfully suspenseful, this crime novel illuminates not only Norway's alleged Nazi ties but also its present skinhead subculture. Readers will delight in Hole, a laconic hero as doggedly stubborn as Connelly's Harry Bosch, and yet with a prickly appeal all his own. One of the more enjoyable things about reading any mystery is to determine whodunit. You want to be puzzled, confused, and kept in suspense. But in my opinion, author Joe Nesbo overdid this in "The Redbreast", the third installment of his Harry Hole series. I still love Harry Hole, and as usual, I reveled in the broody atmosphere of the novel.But I found myself baffled as to what was really happening far too often. The plot was so complex, the way things were finally resolved and explained was Harry reading the journal of the man whodunit. Not a very satisfying resolution for my taste.
An elegant and complex thriller by the Norwegian musician, economist and crime writer Jo Nesbo...The engineering of the interlocking plot pieces is intricate because it has to support Nesbo’s complicated ideas — and dire thoughts — about Norwegian nationalism, past and present. While giving his ambitious book the form of a police procedural, featuring Harry Hole, an attractive if familiarly flawed loose cannon of a cop, the author expands his street-level subplots into a narrative that reaches all the way back to World War II, when Norway was under German occupation.

Harry Hole begår ett svårt tjänstefel och förflyttas till en ny avdelning där hans efterforskningar för honom till Oslos nynazistiska kretsar. Någon under kodnamnet Prinsen tycks styra verksamheten med järnhand. Harry misstänker att Prinsen finns mitt ibland Oslopolisen. Snart går det upp för honom att svaret på den gåta han efterforskar står att finna i den grupp av norska frontmän som kämpade på Hitlers sida under andra världskriget. Samtidigt som en magnifik historia från andra världskrigets verklighet rullas upp, skördar en vålnad offer efter offer i ett lamslaget Oslo. Men detta är bara början, och allt tyder på att mördaren kommer att fullborda sitt blodiga verk den 17 maj. Nu kämpar Harry mot klockan. Inga biblioteksbeskrivningar kunde hittas. |
