<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Dahl weaves an intricate plot, juxtaposing the self-delusion of drug addicts with the more complex self-delusions of the well-respected, middle-class people treating them, in the latest mystery in the Oslo Detective's series.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Gunnarstranda and Frølich rely on old-fashioned interview techniques, dogged comparisons of stories and time lines, to unravel the lies in a whodunit full of psychological insights. -<i>Publishers Weekly</i> <p/>Award-winning author K.O. Dahl has achieved international acclaim with his Oslo Detectives series featuring inspectors Frølich and Gunnarstranda. Now he returns with the third book in the series, combining rare psychological insight and elegant prose rich with dark humor. <p/>Katrine Bratterud, a recovering drug addict, is almost finished with her time in rehab. One evening, contemplating her success at the shore of a lake, she senses that she is not alone. To her shock, a naked man approaches from the woods. The discovery of Katrine's corpse the following day brings Inspectors Frølich and Gunnarstranda onto the case and into a web of secrets and lies that stretches back generations. Katrine's dark past makes her easy prey to a series of men, who immediately become suspects--and victims of the killer's rage. <p/>Like Henning Mankell, Dahl gracefully merges the suspense of the classical whodunit with the detailed precision of the police procedural novel. <p/><b>International Praise for K.O.

Each of the possible suspects seems to be hiding something, and virtually no one tells the truth. It's a difficult job for the police in that there are very few leads. Dahl excels at upping the psychological suspense; it is almost impossible to determine who the murderer is." --<i>reviewingtheevidence.com on The Last Fix</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p>Critics around the world have labeled K.O. Dahl as Norway's answer to Henning Mankell. He has been awarded with the Riverton Prize for Best Crime Novel.</p>
