*DETECTIVE HOLE IS SOON TO BE A MAJOR NETFLIX SERIES*

Harry can't trust his own memory.


A man is caught on CCTV, shooting dead a cashier at a bank. Detective Harry Hole begins his investigation, but after dinner with an old flame wakes up with no memory of the past 12 hours.

Someone wants him out of this picture.

Then the girl is found dead in mysterious circumstances and he begins to receive threatening emails: is someone trying to frame him for her death?

And they'll stop at nothing to fulfil their bloodlust...

As Harry fights to clear his name, the bank robberies continue with unparalleled savagery...

Where does Nemesis: A Harry Hole Thriller, Book 4 rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Jo Nesbo just gets better and better. I am deeply in love with Harry and keep forgetting he is not a real person!

What did you like best about this story?

Harry Hole, the main character.

Have you listened to any of Sean Barrett’s other performances? How does this one compare?

Sean is the best. He doesn't just narrate, he IS the characters, and he is just wonderful when he does Harry's voice. It's pure genius.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Poor Harry. I am always moved by this poor man's struggle with life.
