The Leopard
The Leopard | Jo Nesbo
Harry Hole is back and this time he's back from very, very far away. Another gripping instalment in this prize-winning and acclaimed series by the internationally #1 bestselling crime writer in Norway.Two women are found murdered in Oslo both of them have drowned in their own blood. What mystifies the police is that the puncture wounds in the victims' faces have been caused from the inside of their mouths. Kaja Solness from Homicide is sent to Hong Kong to track down a man who is the Oslo Police Department's only specialist on serial killings. The severely addicted detective has tried to disappear in the vast, anonymous city. He is on the run and haunted by his last case, the woman he loves, and creditors alike. His name is Harry Hole.From the Trade Paperback edition.

This was such a wild ride (as the authors books usually are). The evidence was pointed at so many people. So many twists and turns.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I really like this series. This one was particularly gruesome, but the story was excellent.

I found this a bit more violent than the other Nesbøs I've read before. Reminded me a bit of Larsson's books. I learned a bit about avalanches from the story. This worked really well as an audio book. I did enjoy the story!

I also finished this during the week! Another great installment in the Harry Hole series. Can't wait to see where this goes next... I just might have to binge read the rest!

Bit of a crime thriller now. Never read any Jo Nesbo - thoughts?

Finished this Harry Hole novel during an evening of quiet reading tonight. Definitely another gruesome novel, I‘ve heard the next in the series backs off on the gore, for which I will be thankful.

My reading companion has finally given Rick Riordan a chance, and discovered she loves the Percy Jackson books. She‘s read the first 3 just this week!

Bookzombie Yay! I loved the Percy Jackson series. I keep meaning to go back to his other series. 6y
alisiakae @Bookzombie I‘ve actually never read them, but keep meaning to! I‘m going to try to read the first few soon. 6y

alisiakae @hilded Is the original title something different than an animal? 6y
hilded Yes, it‘s called ‘Panserhjerte‘, which would mean something in the line of ‘Armoured Heart‘ if I were to translate literally. 6y

alisiakae @hilded It annoys me when publishers change a title for an American audience. A la HP and the Philospher‘s/Sorceror‘s Stone. 6y
hilded Agree, especially when they change a British title, that doesn‘t make sense since their both in English anyway. Like this one were they added on 1/2 a death, why - lol 😂😅 6y
hilded I mean, how can a person die 1/2 a time more? 😂😅 6y
alisiakae @hilded 🤷🏻‍♀️😂 6y
alisiakae @hilded I notice he used the phrase armored heart a few times in the book, including the last chapter! 6y
hilded Interesting! I must confess I don‘t remember that. I read the book a long time ago - and while I do enjoy this genre for what it is; a quick entertaining read, they rarely stick. 6y

Unnecessarily long. Still all that Harry Hole goodness though.

“He wanted an armored heart.” Each book make me fall for Harry all over again. His humanism. His faults.

Lindy Sweet. Reminds me of when I was in Finland for a month and my friend sent me a letter addressed only with my name and “a Canadian living on a farm in northern Finland” and it reached me. I was shocked at the postal service excellence. 7y
LibrarianRyan @Lindy there was a news story a few months back where someone put a name and a map of where it should be delivered in Iceland. And it made it. 7y
Lindy @LibrarianRyan I like that😊 7y

Each book in this series just gets better and better. The complex case at hand in The Leopard, the crazy murder weapon, and intriguing characters made for a story of twists and turns. I was constantly guessing who the killer could have been. And every time, my assumption was wrong. Nesbø alludes to who the killer might be and then crushes your guess by making you think it‘s actually someone else. 5/5 stars for another amazing Jo Nesbø book ?

Wowwwwww... I wish I could post this entire 3-page scene - it's just perfect.
Dying father & prodigal son sit in the dark. Son has come to soften a blow, to share a failure, & can't even turn on the light to look his father in the eye.
Father won't waste time hearing it - he just wants to be sure his son knows he is loved.

I wish all of us this much love in our lives, and a moment so perfect in which to receive it.

Throwback to when I was reading and my son got aggravated I wasn't paying better attention to him. #cats go with books like peanut butter and jelly. But he's always jealous of my physical copies. E-reading makes for easier cuddling.

My first Nesbo to end my year with! I prefer reading series in order but will give an exception for this one

Martta Happened to me too with Jo Nesbo. I started with the Snowman. I just happened to cross paths with that one first. Did you like Stieg Larsson? 8y
izah.ahmad @Martta was reading it around 90+ pages till I realized my book was printed badly. Need to look for another copy I guess 😅 8y
Martta @izah.ahmad Ok, don't give up on it. It's good even though in my taste there are some parts I'm not so fond of. Like there is a lot of this company stuff and then in some parts it is so brutal that it is almost bad taste from the writer. But it is still worth reading. 8y
izah.ahmad @Martta am on page 100+ now, Nesbo is good ey 8y
