Reviews

• “Great entertainment value.”

• “Separately, they are superb, but together they are, in my opinion, Norway’s best crime duo, and the fact that they come together for a series is a gift to a crime-loving Norway. It is actually the best thing that has ever happened to Norwegian crime. /…/  It’s without a doubt one of the best crime novels of the year. You could search frantically for something similar abroad (…) no genius has come up with something so resilient before. /…/ This is one of the few crime novels I will read again, and you get pretty sweaty at times on Heger’s behalf.  ”

• “The story is told in an engaging way that makes me, as a reader, interested and curious all the way from beginning to end. (…) This crime collaboration is top-notch. I loved everything about it, and I think Fjell & Horst have a refreshing style, an exuberant language, great dialogue, and a vivid presentation of both characters, environment, and history. It simply feels refreshing, new, alive, and exciting. One thing is certain after reading The Scream: We want more Markus Heger!”

• “Innovative and sharp from Fjell and Lier Horst. /…/ We get fascinating characters, increasing tension, and an intricate plot. The scream both surprises and fascinates. (…) The development of the main character is both believable and interesting.”

• “Entertaining and original. /…/ The story has a varied gallery of characters and a convincing portrayal of a rural environment that harbors secrets, evil, bullying, and revenge.”

• “The Scream has everything a reader could ask for: a good plot, intense tension, and a most unexpected revelation about the person behind the crime./…/ From the first page, you are drawn into the story. The drama is so intense that it is difficult to put the book down. /…/ Together, they have managed to write a masterpiece of a novel. ”
