The Bat
By Jo Nesbo & Don BartlettPublisher Description
INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER • In the electrifying first installment of the New York Times bestselling series, Harry Hole of the Oslo Crime Squad is dispatched to Sydney to observe a murder case. As he circles closer to the killer, Harry begins to fear that no one is safe, least of all those investigating the murder.
The victim is a twenty-three year old Norwegian woman who is a minor celebrity back home. Harry is free to offer assistance, but he has firm instructions to stay out of trouble. Never one to sit on the sidelines, Harry befriends one of the lead detectives, and one of the witnesses, as he is drawn deeper into the case. Together, they discover that this is only the latest in a string of unsolved murders, and the pattern points toward a psychopath working his way across the country.

“I hope the second book about detective Harry is better than this one, because I'm not impressed with the first one in this series.”

“Obsolete for this day and age, lots of offensive remarks, characters not likable, but I still managed to finish it. I don't usually read thrillers, but this one was kind of predictable even for me. Weird as it may seem, I'm curious to continue the Harry Hole series, I want to see if Harry sees some character growth.”
