The prose is stripped back and simple deep emotion bubbling under the surface the real turmoil of the characters lives just under the surface for the reader to intuit, rather than have it spelled out for themDoug Johnstone,The Big Issue Gunnar Staalesen is one of my very favourite Scandinavian authors. Operating out of Bergen in Norway, his private eye, Varg Veum, is a complex but engaging anti-hero. Varg means wolf in Norwegian, and this is a series with very sharp teethIan Rankin Staalesen continually reminds us he is one of the finest of Nordic novelistsFinancial Times Staalesen does a masterful job of exposing the worst of Norwegian society in this highly disturbing entryPublishers Weekly 'The Varg Veum series is more concerned with character and motivation than spectacle, and its in the quieter scenes that the real drama liesHerald Scotland 'Every inch the equal of his Nordic confreres Henning Mankell and Jo Nesbo'Independent With an expositional style that is all but invisible, Staalesen masterfully compels us from the first pages If youre a fan of Varg Veum, this is not to be missed, and ifyoure new to the series, this is one of the best ones. Youre encouraged to jump right in, even if the Norwegian names can be a bit confusing to followCrime Fiction Lover With short, smart, darkly punchy chaptersWolves at the Dooris a provocative and gripping readLoveReading Haunting, dark and totally noir, a great readNew Books Magazine An upmarket Philip MarloweMaxim Jakubowski,The Bookseller Razor-edged Scandinavian crime fiction at its finestQuentin Bates.

A book leaves our collection of over seven million titles and begins a new chapter every two seconds, enabling more goods to be reused. - Ziffit: Through Ziffit, we buy. We give people around the world the opportunity to contribute to the circular economy, earn money and protect the planet, by trading their unwanted books and media. - Shopiago: Through Shopiago, we help others.
