Reviews

• “The novel has a nerve, a sense of painful reality and what it does to people, which makes it extra intense./…/ It’s hard to put down.”

• “Once again, author Jørn Lier Horst impresses. Time and time again, he shows a great capacity for renewal – which is well done after 18 novels about the policeman William Wisting. (…) Jørn Lier Horst knows his trade with a background in the police, and he is able to surprise with strange – but very believable plots. /…/ True Crime is a genre that the former policeman masters at this point. (…) the book is unbearably exciting.”

• “Jørn Lier Horst never ceases to impress, consistently delivering high-quality work. He’s one of the few true tacticians in the Norwegian crime genre. Dry Land is outstanding, and I felt a pang of disappointment when I finished the book – I only wished the 18th William Wisting novel was longer. What a disturbing scenario that forms the basis of this good crime thriller. It is written cinematically. This is an exceptionally well-done piece, especially the tightly constructed plot, where almost nothing is added to the improbable.”
