Detective Hole: The Devil’s Star is soon to be a major Netflix series. Discover Jo Nesbo's debut in translation. This is the novel that launched his career 20 years ago in a series that has gone on to sell over 60 million copies worldwide.

"Many authors know how to make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up. Jo Nesbo's one of the few who keeps them there" - Linwood Barclay

"A series of spectacular plot twists leads to a thrilling finale. Highly recommended" - Guardian

The Mark of the Devil.

A young woman is murdered in her flat and a tiny red diamond in the shape of a five-pointed star is found behind her eyelid.

The Sign of a Killer.

Detective Harry Hole is assigned to the case, alongside his long-time adversary Tom Waaler, and initially wants no part in it. But Harry is already on his final warning and has little alternative but to drag himself out of his alcoholic stupor when it becomes apparent that Oslo has a serial killer on its hands.

Is this an evil that only Harry Hole can stop?

About the Author

Jo Nesbo is one of the world's bestselling crime writers. When commissioned to write a memoir about life on the road with his band, Di Derre, he instead came up with the plot for his first Harry Hole crime novel, The Bat. His books The Leopard, Phantom, Police, The Son, The Thirst, Macbeth and Knife have all since topped the Sunday Times charts. He's an international number one bestseller and his books are published in 51 languages, selling over 60 million copies around the world.
