About this listen

Sonny's on the run. Sonny is a model prisoner. He listens to the confessions of other inmates, and absolves them of their sins. He's been lied to his whole life. But then one prisoner’s confession changes everything. He knows something about Sonny’s disgraced father. Sonny wants revenge. He needs to break out of prison and make those responsible pay for their crimes. Whatever the cost.

I truly love the twists and turns in Jo Nesbo’s work but every time I have to say with them being in Norwegian, I do struggle to keep up with the characters first and surnames and keeping them in place. Fantastic story though, and Sean Barrett is a great narrator.

Great plot and story line
