A good start to the series

The first novel of the Harry Hole Series by Jo Nesbø doesn’t disappoint. The deeply flawed policeman is not only after a serial killer but is also trying to fight his own demons. I was expecting a nordic thriller but this book is set in Australia and it shows. There are a lot of conversations and a big focus on animals and stories about them which I didn’t really care for too much but it was interesting nonetheless. The characters are interesting and unique but lack a bit in depth. I really enjoyed this book but I hope that it gets better in the next few!

3.5 stars. The book was a captivating one. The story focuses on the character as well as the plot. Definitely didn’t see the end coming.
