Hour of the Wolf - Hakan Nesser - 441 Pages
He woke up shortly before dawn - in the hour of the wolf...
In the dead of the night, In the pouring rain, a drunk driver smashes his car into a young man. He abandons the body at the side of the road but the incident will set in motion a chain of events which will change his life forever.
Soon Chief Inspector Van Veeteren, now retired from the Maardam police force, will face his greatest trial as someone close to him is inexplicably murdered.
Van Veeteren's former colleagues, desperate for answers, struggle to decipher the clues to this appalling crime. But when another body is discovered, it gradually becomes clear that this killer is acting on their own terrifying logic... Just like Hakan Nesser's Inspector and Silence. They were both good books and well written ,but there's nothing really original about them. I really enjoyed reading Hour of The Wolf, it had a pace about the writing, but the end was disappointing. How far would you go to cover up an accident, well after being blackmailed, This guys going all the way.
