Either he’d learned to trust me in the course of the four years I’d been working as a fixer for him, or else he didn’t actually want to know.

To sum up, let’s put it like this: I’m no good at driving slowly, I’m way too soft, I fall in love far too easily, I lose my head when I get angry, and I’m bad at maths.

Either way, the snow under him made me think of a king’s robe, all purple and lined with ermine, like the drawings in the book of Norwegian folk tales my mother used to read to me. She liked fairy tales and kings. That’s probably why she named me after a king. In the crowded field of Scandinavian crime fiction, Nesbø’s books stand out…. [He] likes to rip plots up … to play with the conventions of his genre.”— The New Yorker Striking in its simplicity… Nesbo is a writer at the top of his game who continues to amaze in new and confounding ways Daily Express When Ross published his account of the voyage in 1818, it contained a botanical appendix by Robert Brown. In it, Brown tentatively attributed the red snow to an alga. [7]
