THE JEALOUSY MAN - JO NESBO KARTONIERT (TB)

Filled with dark thrills  twisted minds and vengeful hearts  these twelve page-turning short
stories from 'the king of Scandicrime' (FT) and creator of the iconic detective Harry Hole 
will have you reading late into the night. We meet a Greek detective who has become an expert
on jealousy thanks to some hard-earned lessons from his private life. Far away  in another
country  a taxi driver finds his wife's earring in a car belonging to his boss and sets out to
discover how it ended up there. High in the skies above  a woman is on board a plane headed to
London  about to end her own life in the wake of her husband's affair with her best friend. But
who is the man sitting next to her? Nesbo also takes us to the near future  to a dystopian
America  where the upper-class elite is waiting atop a skyscraper to be evacuated while the
masses fight for survival in the streets below. We are introduced to two best friends on their
way to the bull races in Pamplona when they fall in love with the same girl and  in the epic
and vicious finale  we meet a psychologist who also happens to be an assassin. In his first
ever collection of short stories  this master of crime writing skilfully draws in the reader as
we watch the potentially fatal outcomes of humanity's most powerful emotions play out on the
page. PRAISE FOR JO NESBO: 'The Kingdom is a stunning novel from a storyteller with few equals'
Daily Express 'Fast-moving... Stunning' Sunday Times 'Tense  nerve-shredding' Daily Express
