"That he is able to combine the urgency of the best storytellers with a keen and intelligent engagement with social issues may well be the reason why Nesbø is shaping up to be the next big name in Scandinavian crime fiction (.) The Snowman is certainly the most disturbing of Nesbø's books, with a spine-chilling quality that evokes the English master of the macabre, MR James." - Barry Forshaw, The Independent.Deft plotting, strong characterisation, adrenaline-fuelled action sequences and a whole raft of social issues raised along the way make this book a spectacularly good example of how a tried and tested (and often tired) formula can be made exhilarating and fresh." - Laura Wilson, The Guardian "There's a strong, pacey narrative with plenty of gruesome discoveries - never have carrots and lumps of coal been put to such sinister use - and a well-deployed cast of suspects.The Snowman was made into a film in 2017, directed by Tomas Alfredson and starring Michael Fassbender, Chloë Sevigny, Val Kilmer, and Charlotte Gainsbourgī : a bit unfocussed, but has some decent twists.General information | review summaries | our review | links | about the author Trying to meet all your book preview and review needs.
