Reviews

• “Suspenseful killer hunt with modern technology!”

• “Jørn Lier Horst delivers a carefully thought-out plot.”

• “Jørn Lier Horst is one of our absolute greatest crime writers. /…/ In Snowfall, all Wisting fans get their money’s worth.”

• “Horst captures the zeitgeist of our time with Snowfall […] when he places a spotlight on crowdsolving as a phenomenon. It makes the book particularly interesting.”

• “A gem of a work of art in the police procedural genre. A fantastic story for all of us who love investigations! I can hardly remember reading a Norwegian crime novel with such a dedicated and wholehearted focus on solving the crime case. /…/ So suspenseful that I sat on the edge of my chair and read in every spare moment I had. /…/ If you love true crime series, then this is a winner.”

• “Horst writes in the same vein as the British John Le Carre or the American Michael Connolly. (…) [He] infuses his writing with authenticity, offering a story that is as much as police procedural as it is a reflection on justice, family and the quick passage of time. /…/ Horst is a master of creating characters that leap off the page and assume lives of their own. /…/ He writes in a crisp and economical manner. His prose is straightforward and unadorned. The focus is on action and dialogue, which make the pacing taut and the suspense high. But all of these are balanced with a vivid sense of place. ”

• “In [Snowfall] it feels as if you’re inside the head of the detective. /…/ The story is realistic and captivating.”
