Hour of the Wolf: An Inspector Van Veeteren Mystery (7)

Hour of the Wolf: An Inspector Van Veeteren Mystery (7) (Inspector Van Veeteren Series)

A boy in a dark duffel coat. Lying in the ditch. Contorted at impossible angles, with his back pressed up against a concrete culvert and his face staring straight at him. As if he were trying to make some kind of contact. As if he wanted to tell him something.
Â
In the middle of a damp, dark night, a young man is struck by a car after leaving his girlfriendâ€™s house. The driver, drunk, leaves the body by the side of the road. Wrestling with guilt, the driver tries to put the murder out of his mindâ€”until a blackmail note arrives, setting into motion a chain of events that will draw everyone involved into a fog of crime.
Â
Reinhart, the new chief inspector of the Maardam police force, sets his team to work. But when the victim of a second, possibly related, killing is identified, Reinhart realizes that this is no ordinary investigation. In Hour of the Wolf, former chief inspector Van Veeterenâ€”a legend now in retirementâ€”is called upon to face his greatest trial yet, when someone close to him is found dead.
Â
Van Veeterenâ€™s former colleagues, desperate for answers, struggle to decipher the clues to these appalling crimes. As the killer becomes increasingly unhinged and unpredictable, Van Veeteren is forced to reenter a world he left behind, and to avenge a death. Told with HÃ¥kan Nesserâ€™s trademark eye for detail, breakneck plotting, and gut-wrenching moral tension, Hour of the Wolf finds the Nordic noir superstar spinning one of his darkest tales yet.
