'The king of all crime writers' Sunday Express
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.
And he's out for blood
Under pressure from the media to solve the crime, 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...

*Watch out for KILLING MOON, the new Jo Nesbo book, out now*
Jo Nesbo was a Sunday Times number one bestseller with Macbeth on 20/09/2018
Expertly plotted with vividly drawn characters, frenetic police chases and philosophising villains [...] Expect to be thoroughly entertained * Crime Fiction Lover *
Fast-moving...stunning * Sunday Times *
[The Thirst is] a breath-taking reading experience... Nesbo is the master when it comes to building a long and increasingly steep dramatic curve... The pace in The Thirst is somewhat calmer than in the previous Harry Hole books, more of a waltz than a rock and roll, until we're a bit more than halfway through. But from there on, it's full on action with blood gushing and splattering until the last page is turned * Verdens Gang, Norway *
The Thirst like its stablemates is a bulky but zippy 500-pager which never loiters in one place for long. Nesbø keeps you guessing with his usual bag of tricks, making everyone seem a little suspect (or almost everyone). His cynicism about bent coppers and unscrupulous journalists is an inexhaustible and entertaining sideshow...if you liked the other ten, you'll greedily sink your teeth into this * Arts Desk *
Jo Nesbo is on top form... [The Thirst is] a spell-binding story about brutal crimes and ambitions gone astray * Dagbladet, Norway *
