About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

**From the global crime sensation comes a NEW gritty standalone thriller**

This killer has a story.


When a small-time crook is shot down in the streets of Minneapolis, all signs point to a lone wolf, a sniper who has vanished into thin air.

To tell it, he needs to get caught.

When the shooter strikes again, it’s maverick detective Bob Oz they call in to crack the case. They don’t think this victim will be the last.

And this wolf wants the world to know...

As the body count rises, Oz suspects something even more sinister is at play. And the closer he gets to the truth, the more disturbed he becomes. Because this serial killer reminds him of someone dangerous: himself.

He’s only just getting started.

Wolf Hour is a gritty standalone thriller packed with unexpected twists, dark secrets and bubbling personal and political tension, from the king of the cliffhanger.

'Nesbo deserves to be crowned the king of all crime thriller writers' Sunday Express

'Electrifying' Crime Monthly

'Hooks your immediately, there's an unnerving air of suspense throughout...of course, it wouldn't be a Nesbo novel without twists no one sees coming.' UK Press Syndicate

The way it was read - the Norwegian accent put me off - especially the gravelly voice

The twist at the end

Beautifully paced on the entirely topical issues of gun control and loneliness in community. Reader was on the mark with the relevant accent down pat. One of my top ten listens,

Outs standing

No idea what the story is about. A writer comes from Oslo to Minneapolis to work on a true crime novel. He tries to get inside the minds of a killer and a cop who’s looking for him. The transition between different protagonists is at times hard to catch, and the whole story is like a chewing gum. The narrator makes the story even worse - he’s horrible at making different voices, and the parts with Norwegian accent are annoying.
It’s yet another Nesbo’s book outside of the Hole series that’s just mediocre.

A hard to listen convoluted story

Unfortunately the readers of the book fo not make it sound compelling, just confusing. It is difficult to determine which book character they are reading from.

I detest books that contain the "C" word.
