The Redeemer is the fourth in the Harry Hole series to be translated into English.A mixture of religion, urban misery, modern European history and grisly horror story, The Redeemer takes the crime writing of Jo Nesbø to yet another level, establishing him firmly as one of the international top names in crime fiction.

He builds such complex stories around characters that we don't even get to know much. Which leads to a point I need to make - this particular book in the serie...
