Dregs
Well founded and filled with suspense Yes indeed, Jørn Lier Horst has once more written a well-founded and tense crime novel, with space for both the expected and the downright surprising. 'At his best, the author is both a sociologist and a philosopher.' --Terje Stemland, AftenPostenMany have known it for a long time, but now it ought to be acknowledged as a truth for all Norwegian readers of crime fiction: William Wisting is one of the great investigators in Norwegian crime novels. He can bear comparison with Thygesen, Sejer and Isaksen (in the best-selling novels of Jon Michelet, Karin Fossum and Unni Lindell). --Marius Aronsen, Norwegian Book ClubHorst is an intelligent and often poetic writer. His storytelling is as measured and precise as his main character. So we hope to see more of William Wisting in the English language soon, and it would be great to see Dregs on Kindle as well. --Crime Fiction LoverOnce more the Larvik region is the arena for murder and dark deeds, and once again Wisting, now somewhat burned out, uninspired and overworked, confronts a seemingly insoluble criminal mystery. --Svend E.
