About this listen
Random House presents the unabridged, downloadable audiobook edition of The Thirst by Jo Nesbo, ready by Sean Barrett.
HARRY HOLE IS BACK! A BLISTERING NEW THRILLER FROM THE NUMBER 1 BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE SNOWMAN AND POLICE.
THERE'S A NEW KILLER ON THE STREETS...
A woman is found murdered after an internet date. The marks left on her body show the police that they are dealing with a particularly vicious killer.
HE'S IN YOUR HOUSE... HE'S IN YOUR ROOM
Under pressure from the media to find the murderer, the force know there's only one man for the job. But Harry Hole is reluctant to return to the place that almost took everything from him. Until he starts to suspect a connection between this killing and his one failed case.
HE'S OUT FOR BLOOD
When another victim is found, Harry realises he will need to put everything on the line if he's to finally catch the one who got away.
'An expertly plotted, compelling and gripping white-knuckle ride... Nesbo deserves to be crowned the king of all crime thriller writers' Sunday Express on THE SON
'Nesbo deploys all the key ingredients of a cracking good thriller with expertise and verve. The ticking clock, the tension expertly ratcheted ever upwards, the changing scenery, the constantly shifting goalposts and the effortless, triumphant outpacing of the reader's ability to guess what's going to happen will keep you gripped to the last page' Guardian on THE LEOPARD
'The undisputed king of Scandinavian crime fiction' The Times
'Scandinavian crime thrillers don't come much darker or more tense than the best-selling Harry Hole series, and this tenth outing for the Norwegian detective is the best yet' Sunday Mirror on POLICE
Jo Nesbo was a Sunday Times number one bestseller with Macbeth on 20/09/2018

Nesbo Hole Classic
So worth the wait. Harry Hole fans will not be dissapointed and Sean Barrett is such a talented reader. Every character is well defined and his rendition of Nesbo's words brings every facet of this book to life. It's so easy to visualise everything which at times can be quite disturbing. Be prepared to find yourself stopped in your tracks engrossed in the narrative. Took me twice as long to do my housework last weekend as I found myself just sitting or standing - engrossed.

Perfection
I don't write many reviews when I'm only halfway through an audiobook. But then again, this one will take me time, because when I hit that magic spot, that mesmerising, "In the zone" place, I will sometimes pause the book, just to savour a passage. Stop. Run through what I just heard (in my head). Marvel at how brilliant it was. And then carry on...
I have a pantheon of narration superheroes: Dick Hill, Will Patton, and the like ... and Sean Barrett. The masters of audiobook narration who breathe Life into print.
And when you match him with a writer like Jo Nesbo, the title I gave my review becomes an understatement.
Sure, Harry Hole is my kind of... hero?... anti-hero? ... like Jack Reacher, Harry Bosch, Dave Robichaux. Taciturn, serious, dogged as they pursue the perpetrators of extreme evil, shaking aside their own demons.
Their creators build finely-crafted worlds populated by finely-wrought characters - and then these narrators bring them to life - and turn them over to *your* imagination.
That is perfection, and this book is just another example of it. I think Jo Nebo is at the very summit of the glibly-labeled (but appropriately!) Scandi-noir authors. You walk through cold, damp, darkness along with the protagonists, enjoying every scene.
It is bloody marvelous indeed.

Haunting
Harry - you keep delivering!! I found this one comforting at times and had to switch off as the suspense was at such a high! Once I’d listened though I did giggle as I realised I’d been managed… loved it. Maybe even the best in the series…

Gripping story
Great story with Harry Holes again. These series are awesome and well thought-out but it’s was extremely hard to figure out the characters. It flicked between them often and I personally never got a grasp on the individuals well. Overall story was really good though
