*A STUNNING NEW STANDALONE THRILLER FROM THE AUTHOR OF THE BESTSELLING HARRY HOLE SERIES*
In the far north of Norway a man lives a peaceful existence. However one day his younger brother, always the more successful and charming of the two, turns up to visit, accompanied by his new wife. It soon turns out that the little brother is not quite as angelic as he seems.
Set in a small town filled with secrets, this compellingly dark new thriller from the Sunday Times number one bestseller has a plot as explosive and multi-layered as any of the Harry Hole novels.

I read THE KINGDOM and couldn't put it down...suspenseful...original...this one is special in every way. * Stephen King * Jo Nesbo remains the king of Scandicrime. * Financial Times * Superbly written and magnificently chilling * Sunday Mirror * This being Nesbo there is plenty of deception, death and partial decapitation to come. No Harry Hole this time, but still a sombre delight. There are shades of a Nordic Ripley, or maybe Virginia Andrews on aquavit. Choose your poison * The Times * The Kingdom is a stunning novel from a storyteller with few equals -- Jon Coates * UK Press Syndication * Brilliantly chilling -- Deirdre O'Brien * Best * The pace is uncharacteristically gentle, which is well-handled by Nesbo. But it all ends up as enjoyably over the top as ever * Sunday Express * This standalone promises to be another disturbing thriller as only Nesbų can write them. * Amazon Book Review *12 must-read mysteries and thrillers coming this fall* * The latest stand-alone from the chronicler of Inspector Harry Hole puts all the murky, violent twists on brotherly love that you'd expect from this leading exponent of Nordic noir...The illusions of a family and its close-knit town constructed and demolished on a truly epic scale. * Kirkus Reviews (Starred Review), US * With echoes of such classic noir authors as Dorothy B. Hughes, James M. Cain, and Jim Thompson...Nesbo brilliantly uses the insularity of Roy's world, both internally and externally, to accentuate the Shakespearean inevitability of the impending tragedy. * Booklist, Starred Review *
