书籍简介:
Internationally acclaimed crime writer Jo Nesbø’s antihero police investigator, Harry Hole, is back: in a bone-chilling thriller that will take Hole to the brink of insanity.
Oslo in November. The first snow of the season has fallen. A boy named Jonas wakes in the night to find his mother gone. Out his window, in the cold moonlight, he sees the snowman that inexplicably appeared in the yard earlier in the day. Around its neck is his mother’s pink scarf.
Hole suspects a link between a menacing letter he’s received and the disappearance of Jonas’s mother—and of perhaps a dozen other women, all of whom went missing on the day of a first snowfall. As his investigation deepens, something else emerges: he is becoming a pawn in an increasingly terrifying game whose rules are devised—and constantly revised—by the killer.
Fiercely suspenseful, its characters brilliantly realized, its atmosphere permeated with evil, The Snowman is the electrifying work of one of the best crime writers of our time.
作者简介:
尤•奈斯博，北欧犯罪小说天王，挪威史上最畅销的作家，每一部作品都是挪威图书畅销排行榜冠军。他拿过北欧的所有犯罪小说大奖，包括玻璃钥匙奖、挪威史上最佳犯罪小说奖、书店业者大奖等，还获得英国国际匕首奖和美国爱伦•坡奖提名，作品被翻译成40种语言，在50多个国家出版，全球销量突破2500万册。
奈斯博曾是挪威知名的摇滚巨星，白天任职于金融业，利用晚上和周末时间演出。不久，他考得金融分析师执照，被挪威最大的证券公司高薪挖走。然而工作和乐团越来越难以兼顾，濒临崩溃的奈斯博决定休半年长假。他带着笔记本电脑，跳上飞机，前往澳大利亚，在那里写下了日后让自己声名大噪的“哈利•霍勒警探”系列的第一部。
奈斯博受到英美犯罪小说名家一致拥戴，迈克尔•康纳利称赞他是“我最喜欢的惊悚作家”。评论家普遍认为，奈斯博可与丹尼斯•勒翰、詹姆斯•艾尔罗伊、迈克尔•康纳利、伊恩•兰金、雷蒙德•钱德勒等名家相提并论，称他是“挪威犯罪书写的毕加索”；德国《明镜》周刊则赞他为“斯堪的纳维亚的奇迹”。他的读者族群广泛，涵盖纯文学、冷硬推理、黑色小说，以及通俗惊悚小说爱好者。
