Publisher's Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

Set your pulse raising with this novel from Norwegian superstar Jørn Lier Horst.

A severed head on a stake, a body in the lake....

Wisting - now a major BBC 4 TV show.

William Wisting is in a race against time....

When a severed head is found on a stake in the quiet town of Larvik, Police Inspector William Wisting is called in to investigate. The only clue? The killer is trying to send a message.

All roads lead back to the Night Man....

As the media closes in on the biggest story of the year, Wisting's journalist daughter Line receives a tip. Soon, it becomes clear that there is more to this case than anyone thought. A criminal network has lodged itself deep into the roots of the city, and it's up to Wisting to take down the elusive and dangerous Night Man.

This is just the beginning....

But hunting down the Night Man will take everything Wisting has, and it's all too easy for the hunter to become the prey....

"One of the most brilliantly understated crime novelists writing today." (Sunday Times)

A nice story

This story lacked depth and had both emotive content
narration seemed very bland
I only read the story through because I has never anything like before. it did have minor informative content. I do not recommend this book.
