Jo Nesbo writes his magnum opus with an emotionally powerful and immensely twisty thriller that will leave you speechless by the end.
A sniper takes out a small-time crook in Minneapolis and vanishes into thin air. With leads drying out, Detective Bob Oz takes an interest in the case. His unorthodox methods give him the best chance at catching his man, but will he be able to see the killer coming at him before it’s too late?
The synopsis is best left as vague as possible because Jo Nesbo hits you with many right-hook twists and turns you’ll best enjoy as you discover along the pages. The narrative dives into the all-too-relatable themes of pain, suffering, and longing which elevate the characters up from your standard ones to an unpredictable and dangerous avenue where you find yourself even rooting for the killer at times. Jo Nesbo keeps you mesmerized with one tantalizing twist after another as the detective puts his mind to the case with cool discoveries and sometimes dangerous mistakes that hit the readers as much as the characters right in the gut with the full weight of a freight train. Just when you get cocky you’ve gotten the story nailed down, it takes a sharp gasp-worthy turn towards a path you hadn’t anticipated.
Wolf Hour is masterful storytelling propelled by intelligent design and smartly-timed revelations that flip the narrative on its head multiple times until you’re holding onto your seat for dear life, so make sure you’re sitting comfortably while reading.
