Summary
Dark and twisted crime stories from the #1 Sunday Times bestselling author of the Harry Hole series, Jo Nesbo. Meet a Greek detective who has become an expert on jealousy thanks to some hard-earned lessons from his private life. Far away, in another country, a taxi driver finds his wife's earring in a car belonging to his boss and sets out to discover how it ended up there. High in the skies above, a woman is on board a plane heading to London, about to end her own life in the wake of her husband's affair with her best friend. But who is the man sitting next to her? In a near-future, dystopian America the upper-class elite is waiting atop a skyscraper to be evacuated while the masses fight for survival in the streets below. Two best friends on their way to the running of the bulls in Pamplona fall in love with the same girl and, in the epic and vicious finale, we meet a psychologist who also happens to be an assassin. In his first ever collection of short stories, Nesbo skilfully draws you in as you watch the potentially fatal outcomes of humanity's most powerful emotions play out
