About this listen

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • In this installment of the New York Times bestselling series, Inspector Harry Hole heads to Thailand to investigate the murder of a Norweigian ambassador.

"Nesbø never lets a page go by without making characters and situations vivid."—
Houston Chronicle

“I can’t think of anyone who makes my skin crawl like Nesbo."—
The New York Times Book Review

When the Norwegian ambassador to Thailand is found dead in a Bangkok brothel, Inspector Harry Hole is dispatched from Oslo to help hush up the case. But once he arrives Harry discovers that this case is about much more than one random murder. There is something else, something more pervasive, scrabbling around behind the scenes. Or, put another way, for every cockroach you see in your hotel room, there are hundreds behind the walls. Surrounded by round-the-clock traffic noise, Harry wanders the streets of Bangkok lined with go-go bars, temples, opium dens, and tourist traps, trying to piece together the story of the ambassador’s death even though no one asked him to, and no one wants him to—not even Harry himself.

Don't miss Jo Nesbo's new thriller, Killing Moon, coming soon!

Critic reviews

"Nesbø never lets a page go by without making characters and situations vivid."—Houston Chronicle

"The world is dark and frozen, according to Nordic noir, and so is the human heart. But it's the magic Nesbø works with the genre's tropes that matters.... [He] might be my favorite of the lot."—Michael Robbins, Chicago Tribune

"Satisfyingly twisty.... A compelling, hard-edged thriller."—Booklist
