    Having read many but not all of Nesbo's books, I consider this one to be his best. A book that touches the reader.

    This review is about a variation of the product

    If not the best of Nesbo, then definitely in the top 3. The plot is excellent and keeps you hooked until the very last moment as the story unfolds. The anti-hero here in Nesbo's work evokes sympathy through his flaws, which abruptly ground him in reality during his journey. Perhaps the author performs better when the field is open and he doesn't have to build the plot around the team's aging star (Hole) anymore.

    I read it after I had read the books with the character Hole. Although I expected to get bored, I think I liked it more than all of Nesbo's books. Continuous action and an alternative hero

Description & Specifications

THEY TOLD HIM LIES HIS WHOLE LIFE. The heroin addict Sonny has spent most of his life in prison. Thanks to his otherworldly gift of comfort, he accepts with serenity the confessions of his fellow inmates, who feel relieved after them. No one seems to care how Sonny finds his dose so easily inside the prison or what crimes he is serving time for.

NOW HE COMES TO JUDGE THE DEAD AND THE LIVING… His addiction started when his police officer father chose to commit suicide after being accused of corruption. Now this child is at the center of an entire network covering up crimes involving correctional officers, lawyers, and desperate priests.

AT ANY COST. However, a specific confession that Sonny will hear will overturn everything because it will reveal to him what really happened to his father.
