Killing Moon: The NEW Sunday Times bestselling thriller (Harry Hole, 13)

Product Information

Harry saw the passenger door of the white Camaro open, and a man in sunglasses and a red polo shirt emerge. The seventh in the Hole series, The Snowman, was adapted into a Hollywood film starring Michael Fassbender as Harry, alongside Silo star Rebecca Ferguson and Top Gun ace Val Kilmer. But the brutal rape and murder of young, beautiful women as exploitative entertainment has become a hot topic—as it should be. The sequel to It Ends With Us (2016) shows the aftermath of domestic violence through the eyes of a single mother.

Harry also knew that a physical intervention was unavoidable, and that the first rule in close combat was simple: don’t wait, he who attacks first and with maximum aggression wins. When, for years, you’ve tacitly allowed all those young, hopeful actors to walk into Weinstein’s’ office alone because you with all your millions, by speaking out might—might—miss out on yet another million-dollar role, then I think you should be publicly whipped and spat upon. It’s a temporary fix, but fortunately, a contrivance gives him a chance to help her pay her debts: Hole’s former colleagues are probing the murder of Susanne Anderson, a 26-year-old found dead in an Oslo forest. A promising career as a professional footballer for Norwegian premiership side Molde FK – with a dream of playing for Spurs – was cut short by tearing the ligaments in both knees.So he didn’t slow down, and the other man must have realised Harry’s intention, because he let go of Lucille and reached for something behind him. For new readers, their history unfolds in heartfelt diary entries that Lily addresses to Finding Nemo star Ellen DeGeneres as she considers how Atlas was a calming presence during her turbulent childhood.

It takes all of Hole’s ingenuity to uncover what must be the most unusual method of murder in contemporary crime fiction. That’s two decades of literary commitment, so it’s not easy for me to acknowledge that Killing Moon is so cruelly, brutally misogynistic and brimming with every savage cliche of crime fiction that it’s barely readable. Harry surmised the man must have a similar background to his own; only policemen employed polite language in this type of situation. I didn’t figure out who the killer was, although you’re likely cleverer than I am and might well do so early on.I was likewise there for the release of Cockroaches, The Snowman, The Leopard, Phantom, Police and The Thirst. Two women are missing, their only connection being they attended the same party, hosted by a notorious real-estate magnate.
