The chilling and heart-pounding new novel from Norwegian superstar Jørn Lier Horst.

THE INSPIRATION FOR THE HIT BBC FOUR SHOW WISTING

Wisting is back with his most gripping case yet.

In 1999, seventeen-year-old Tone Vaterland was killed on her way home from work. Desperate for a conviction the police deemed the investigation an open-and-shut case and sent her spurned boyfriend, Danny Momrak, down for murder.

But twenty years later William Wisting receives a puzzling letter. It suggests the wrong man was convicted for Tone's death and the real murderer is still out there, and could kill again. . .

Great book

I've listened to the entire Cold Case Quartet series and this one is the best so far.
Great listen.
One thing that I wouldn't say about Saul Reichl in, but his performance in this series is top notch.
