  The hunt is on to catch an unstoppable killer.
  
  When a small-time crook is shot down in the streets of Minneapolis, all signs point to a lone wolf, a sniper who has vanished into thin air.
  
  But when the shooter strikes again, maverick detective Bob Oz is called in to crack the case. He does not think this victim will be the last.
  
  As the body count rises, Oz suspects something even more sinister is at play. And the closer he gets to the truth, the more disturbed he becomes. Because this serial killer reminds him of someone dangerous: himself.
  
  Wolf Hour is a gritty standalone thriller packed with unexpected twists, dark secrets and bubbling personal and political tension, from the king of the cliffhanger.

  Review

  Electrifying ― Crime Monthly
  
  Hooks you in immediately, there's an unnerving air of suspense throughout and meticulous attention to detail - the clever parallel timelines providing just enough clues to keep the pages turning. But, of course, it wouldn't be a Nesbo novel without twists no one sees coming ― Independent
  
  A taut standalone from the king of Nordic noir ― i
  
  Nordic noir master Nesbø sets his sights on the American Midwest in this exquisitely plotted, darkly funny thriller that tackles gun control, police corruption, and psychological trauma in contemporary Minneapolis ... Readers will have no doubt they’re in the hands of a brilliant storyteller. This soars ― Publishers Weekly
  
  [Wolf Hour] is a pleasure to read with its engaging, easy-twisting plot, its cerebral touches, and characters like Liza, a bartender whose teasing scenes with Oz are highlights. /…/ Another standout standalone from the author of the Harry Hole series ― Kirkus
  
  Nesbø has crafted a powerhouse here, a profoundly human exploration of loneliness and grief driven by a twisting procedural plot and grisly shocks. Readers of Nordic noir will find Nesbø’s taut narrative and social commentary deeply infused with emotional depth. Highly recommended for newcomers seeking startling perspectives on justice, such as those found in Dennis Lehane’s and Richard Price’s works ― Booklist, US
