The jealousy man and other stories / Jo Nesbo ; translated from the Norwegian by Robert Ferguson.
Jo Nesbø is known the world over as a consummate mystery/thriller writer. Famed for his deft characterization, hair-raising suspense and shocking twists, Nesbø's dexterity with the dark corners of the human heart is on full display in these inventive and enthralling stories. A detective with a nose for jealousy is on the trail of a man suspected of murdering his twin, a bereaved father must decide whether vengeance has a place in the new world order after a pandemic brings about the collapse of society, a garbage man fresh off a bender tries to piece together what happened the night before, a hired assassin matches wits against his greatest adversary in a dangerous game for survival and an instantly electric connection between passengers on a flight to London may spell romance or something more sinister. With Nesbø's gift for outstanding atmosphere and gut-wrenching revelations, The Jealousy Man is a veritable crime lover's delight.
