Fresh from rehab, Norwegian PI Varg Veum faces his most complex investigation yet, when a man is found drowned, a young woman disappears, and the case of a missing child is revived. The classic Nordic Noir series continues... 'As searing and gripping as they come' New York Times 'One of my very favourite Scandinavian authors' Ian Rankin 'The Norwegian Chandler' Jo Nesbø ***Now a major TV series starring Trond Espen Seim*** ________________________ PI Varg Veum has returned to duty following a stint in rehab, but his new composure and resolution are soon threatened when a challenging assignment arrives on his desk. A man is found dead in an elite swimming pool and a young woman has gone missing. Most chillingly, Varg Veum is asked to investigate the 'Camilla Case': an eight-year-old cold case involving the disappearance of a little girl, who was never found. As the threads of these apparently unrelated crimes come together, against the backdrop of a series of shocking environmental crimes, Varg Veum faces the most challenging, traumatic investigation of his career. ________________________ 'Every inch the equal of his Nordic confreres Henning Mankell and Jo Nesbø' Independent 'Staalesen continually reminds us he is one of the finest of Nordic novelists' Financial Times 'There are only two other writers that I know of have achieved the depth of insight in detective writing that Staalesen has: Chandler, and Ross MacDonald ...' Mystery Tribune 'Employs Chandleresque similes with a Nordic Noir twist ... simply superb' Wall Street Journal 'Masterful pacing' Publishers Weekly 'The Varg Veum series is more concerned with character and motivation than spectacle, and it's in the quieter scenes that the real drama lies' Herald Scotland 'Unsettling, moving, sad, hopeful and hopeless ... it's rich and it's sharp and it's cynical and sentimental all at once' NB Magazine 'A complex, layered plot in which human tragedy and mystery combine to play out beautifully in a classic Nordic noir with a touch of Christie' Live & Deadly For fans of Henning Mankell, Jo Nesbø, Jorn Lier Horst, Harlan Coben and Jussi Adler-Olsen

As panic sets in and the death toll rises, it becomes increasingly clear that it may already be too late. For everyone... ––––––––––––––––––––––––––– 'Caustic, incisive prose.

Books 4,5 and 6 of THE DETECTIVE KUBU COLLECTION Assistant Superintendent David 'Kubu' Bengu of the Botswana Criminal Investigation Department returns to solve a series of dark, devastating crimes that run deep into the heart of the community and far, far beyond ... Sunshine Noir at its very finest... BOOK ONE – Deadly Harvest Finalist for the Best Paperback Original Novel at the International Thriller Writers Award A young girl goes missing after getting into a car with a mysterious man. Soon after, a second girl disappears, and her devastated father, Witness, sets out to seek revenge. As the trail goes cold, Samantha Khama – new recruit to the Botswana Criminal Investigation Department – suspects the girl was killed for muti, the traditional African medicine usually derived from plants, sometimes animals, and, recently and most chillingly, human parts. When the investigation gets personal, Samantha enlists opera-loving wine connoisseur Assistant Superintendent David 'Kubu' Bengu to help her dig into the past. As they begin to discover a pattern to the disappearances, there is another victim, and Kubu and Samantha are thrust into a harrowing race to stop a serial killer who has only one thing in mind... BOOK TWO – A Death in the Family 'There's no easy way to say this, Kubu. Your father's dead. I'm afraid he's been murdered.' Faced with the violent death of his own father, even Assistant Superintendent David 'Kubu' Bengu, Botswana CID's keenest mind, is baffled. Who would kill such a frail old man? The picture becomes even murkier with the apparent suicide of a government official. Are Chinese mine-owners involved? And what role does the US Embassy have to play? Set amidst the dark beauty of modern Botswana, A Death in the Family is a thrilling insight into a world of riots, corruption and greed, as a complex series of murders present the opera-loving, wine connoisseur detective with his most challenging case yet. When grief-stricken Kubu defies orders and sets out on the killers' trail, startling and chilling links emerge, spanning the globe and setting a sequence of shocking events in motion. Will Kubu catch the killers in time ... and find justice for his father? BOOK THREE – Dying To Live When the body of a Bushman is discovered near the Central Kalahari Game Reserve, the death is written off as an accident. But all is not as it seems. An autopsy reveals that, although he's clearly very old, his internal organs are puzzlingly young. What's more, an old bullet is lodged in one of his muscles ... but where is the entry wound? When the body is stolen from the morgue and a local witch doctor is reported missing, Detective 'Kubu' Bengu gets involved. Kubu and his brilliant young colleague, Detective Samantha Khama, follow the twisting trail through a confusion of rhino-horn smugglers, foreign gangsters and drugs manufacturers. And the deeper they dig, the wider and more dangerous the case becomes... A fresh, new slice of 'Sunshine Noir', Dying to Live is a classic tale of greed, corruption and ruthless thuggery, set in one of the world's most beautiful landscapes, and featuring one of crime fiction's most endearing and humane heroes. A wonderful, original voice – McCall Smith with a dark edge and even darker underbelly' Peter James 'My favourite writing duo since Ellery Queen' Ragnar Jónasson 'It kept me guessing, and it kept me gasping at its many twists and surprises' R.L. Kline 'Richly atmospheric ... a gritty depiction of corruption and deception' Publishers Weekly 'Compelling and deceptively written ...' New York Journal of Books

A snobbish Danish literary author is challenged to write a crime novel in thirty days, travelling to a small village in Iceland for inspiration, and then a body appears ... an atmospheric, darkly funny, twisty debut thriller, first in an addictive new series. `An original and thoroughly enjoyable treat ́ Guardian `Dark and sharp ... A lot of fun ́ Val McDermid `Witty, dark, meta, ingenious and hugely compelling. I LOVED the Icelandic setting and satirical observations ́ Will Dean `Hilariously scathing.

But nobody actually reads them, and frustrated by writer's block, Hannah has the feeling that she's doing something wrong. When she expresses her contempt for genre fiction, Hanna is publicly challenged to write a crime novel in thirty days. Scared that she will lose face, she accepts, and her editor sends her to Húsafjöður – a quiet, tight-knit village in Iceland, filled with colourful local characters – for inspiration. But two days after her arrival, the body of a fisherman's young son is pulled from the water ... and what begins as a search for plot material quickly turns into a messy and dangerous investigation that threatens to uncover secrets that put everything at risk ... including Hannah... Atmospheric, dramatic and full of nerve-jangling twists and turns, Thirty Days of Darkness is a darkly funny, unsettling debut Nordic Noir thriller that marks the start of a breath-taking new series. ____________________ `Dark and atmospheric ... a bleak and beautiful evocation of Iceland, and Hannah is a pitch-perfect depiction of the bombastic neurosis that we writers know so very well ́ Harriet Tyce `Such a clever, original twist on the Nordic Noir tradition – darkly humorous and utterly captivating ́ Eva Björg Ægisdóttir `A fantastic debut ...

Malone `So satisfying ... a truly great read ́ Lilja Sigurðardóttir `A skilful, witty mash-up, playing with tropes of romantic fiction (yes, that popular genre writer turns up in the village and is not so bad after all) and crime fiction (closed community, dark secrets) ... really entertaining ́ Aly Monroe `This reminded me somewhat of the more recent, meta efforts of the great Anthony Horowitz ́ The Bookbag `The most original thriller of the year: realistic, suspenseful and romantic to the very last page.
