По дороге из школы пропадает девятилетняя девочка. Ночью из кроватки похищают маленького мальчика. Вскоре его возвращают матери. Мертвого, с запиской: «Получай по заслугам». Потом исчезает третий ребенок: его крадут из переполненного автобуса в самом центре Осло. Кажется, что преступник неуловим. Инспектор криминальной полиции Ингвар Стюбе понимает, что промедление чревато новыми жертвами, и берет себе в помощницы молодую специалистку в области юриспруденции и психологии, имеющую опыт работы в ФБР, Ингер Вик. Он еще не знает, что прошлое Ингер сплетется в одну страшную историю с делом о похищениях детей…

Инспектор криминальной полиции Ингвар Стюбё расследует серию жестоких убийств в Осло. Жертвы – ведущая телешоу, лидер политической партии, писатель, спортсмен. Убийца бросает вызов полиции, дерзко намекая на мотив преступления: у телеведущей вырван язык, у писателя торчит из глаза его дорогая ручка…
Жена инспектора, Ингер Йоханне Вик, вспоминает, что тринадцать лет назад на лекции по психологии преступников она слышала об аналогичной серии преступлений. Финалом ее стал поджог дома полицейского. Успеет ли Ингвар Стюбе остановить убийцу, если тот задумал довести свой "римейк" до конца?

20 января 2005 года в четверг начались выборы. Президентскую присягу выпало произносить Хелен Лардал Бентли - в качестве 44 президента США и первой в Америке женщины-президента.
Церемонию транслируют телекомпании всего мира, за ней наблюдают миллионы телезрителей. Ну а в голове виновницы торжества снова и снова крутится мысль: "Несмотря на это, я победила".
Дело в том, что у Хелен есть одна заветная тайна, о которой никому не известно, тайна, которая могла бы свести на нет все ее амбиции и погубить карьеру.
Однако Хелен все же достигла своей цели. Но может ли она теперь успокоиться?

The first book in Edgar-nominated Anne Holt's international bestselling mystery series featuring detective Hanne Wilhelmsen.

A small-time drug dealer is found battered to death on the outskirts of the Norwegian capital, Oslo. A young Dutchman, walking aimlessly in central Oslo covered in blood, is taken into custody but refuses to talk. When he is informed that the woman who discovered the body, Karen Borg, is a lawyer, he demands her as his defender, although her specialty is civil, not criminal, law. A couple of days later, Hansa Larsen, a lawyer of the shadiest kind, is found shot to death.

Soon police officers Håkon Sand and Hanne Wilhelmsen establish a link between the two killings. They also find a coded message hidden in the murdered lawyer’s apartment. Their maverick colleague in the drugs squad, Billy T., reports that a recent rumor in the drug underworld involves drug-dealing lawyers. Now the reason why the young Dutchman insisted on having Karen Borg as a defender slowly dawns on them: since she was the one to find and report the body, she is the only Oslo lawyer that cannot be implicated in the crime. As the officers investigate, they uncover a massive network of corruption leading to the highest levels of government.

As their lives are threatened, Hanne and her colleagues must find the killer and, in the process, bring the lies and deception out into the open.

Hanne Wilhelmsen er tilbake!

En pandemi har slått inn over verden. Hanne Wilhelmsen, for lengst pensjonert fra politiet, har levd i indre eksil i leiligheten sin i en årrekke. Da Norge stenges ned, opplever hun endelig å ta den folketomme byen sin tilbake.
Politibetjent Henrik Holme sliter samtidig med et drap ingen synes å bry seg nevneverdig med. En kvinne er funnet naken i bagasjerommet på en tilfeldig bil. Kroppen er intakt, bortsett fra at ansiktet er knust. Ingen har meldt henne savnet. Ingen vet hvem hun er. Han må ty til sin gamle mentor Hanne Wilhelmsen for hjelp.

På Norges største forlagshus har den unge redaktøren Ebba Braut bare vært fire dager i ny jobb da pandemien rammer for fullt. Fra et trangt hjemmekontor blir hun satt til å jakte på et svært verdifullt, forsvunnet manus fra en av forlagets bestselgende forfattere. Hun må også tvinge seg på Hanne Wilhelmsen, som nettopp har levert sin første kriminalroman uten å være videre interessert i å bli redigert.

Det ellevte manus er en historie om familiehemmeligheter og bedrag, om identitetstyveri og svindel, om forfattere og bokbransje, og om hvordan virkelighetslitteratur kan være livsfarlig. Bokstavelig talt.

The snow is falling

Selma Falck is living a nightmare. Trapped in a burning cabin on a freezing snow-covered mountain, she has no idea where she is or how she got there. Bruised, bleeding and naked, she barely makes it out in time as the flames engulf the cabin. With no signs of human habitation nearby, the temperature rapidly dropping, and a blizzard approaching, how will she survive?

She's lost in the wilderness

As Selma fights the cold, the hunger and her own wounds, she eventually forms a frightening picture of the past six months. Not only does she have to find a way to stay alive, she needs to make it back to civilization, quickly. Murder has been committed, and a great injustice must be stopped. The very future of the nation itself is at stake...

If the cold doesn't kill her, they will...

On a summer's day, Johanne Vik arrives at the home of her friends Jon and Ellen Mohr and was greeted by a scene of devastation: their young son, left unattended, has tragically fallen to his death.

Meanwhile, Oslo is under attack. An explosion has torn the city apart and newly qualified police officer Henrik Holme is the only one available to attend the Mohr household. As Holme investigates, he casts doubt on the claim that the death was a tragic accident and calls upon Johanne's profiling expertise to understand what really happened. But neither realise that those involved are determined to hide the truth - no matter what. Before the summer is over, more shocking deaths will occur...

In a foster home outside Oslo, a twelve-year-old boy is causing havoc. The institution’s steely director, Agnes Vestavik, sees something chilling in Olav’s eyes: sheer hatred. When Vestavik is found murdered at her desk, stabbed in the back with an Ikea kitchen knife—with Olav nowhere to be found—the case goes to maverick investigator Hanne Wilhelmsen, recently promoted to chief inspector in the Oslo Police.

Could the child be a murderer? As police canvass the city for Olav, Hanne, working alongside the foulmouthed detective Billy T., orders an investigation of the home’s employees. But despite her supreme deductive skills, she is hopeless at delegating, hopeless at pooling information, hopeless at sharing responsibilities. Can Hanne learn to trust others before her bullheaded instincts lead her astray—in the workplace and on the home front?

The silent, snow-covered streets of Oslo are a perfect scene of Christmas tranquillity. But over the tolling of bells for the last Sunday of Advent, a black note sounds. A boy's body washes up near the shoreline of the city's Aker Bridge. His corpse is bloated by the water, almost unrecognisable. Nobody has even bothered to report him missing.

One week later, the bishop of Bergen is found stabbed to death on a deserted street. Eva Karin Lysgaard is a popular public figure, a sixty-two year-old grandmother: why was she on a lone errand in the deserted city, on the night before Christmas?

Johanne Vik, criminal researcher and police profiler, is called in to untangle the motivation behind the bishop's murder. But with her husband at the head of this increasingly high-profile investigation, Vik's association with the case is under intense scrutiny. And why does Lysgaard's shocking death lead her towards the sad death of an unknown boy?

Søskenparet Anne Holt og Even Holt aktuelle med thriller om hjerteoperasjoner, sykehusintriger og norsk oljefonds investeringer
Professor Sara Zuckerman vet at hun ikke burde operere pasienten hun er i ferd med å åpne. Hvor alvorlige konsekvensene av den rutinemessige operasjonen blir, aner hun derimot lite om.

En hjertestarter skal redde liv. For den nyopererte Erik Berntsen koster den ham livet. Noe er galt med verdens mest solgte implanterbare hjertestarter. Ingen forstår hva.

Et kappløp mot sannheten er i gang. Dr. Zuckerman og hennes underordnede, fembarnsfaren Ola Farmen, innser umiddelbart at flere liv står på spill. Men det gjør også svimlende summer, først og fremst for produsenten av hjertestarteren, Mercury Medical.

Flimmer er en thriller fra et konfliktfylt sykehusmiljø i Norge i 2010. Det er en historie om de evige motsetninger mellom pasienters beste og offentlig økonomi, mellom internasjonale industriinteresser og den enkelte lege, og aller mest: mellom sannhet, løgn og fortielse.

Meanwhile, as the trail heats up, the victim of a horrific unsolved rape case and her father have each decided to take justice into their own hands. Hanne and Håkon soon discover that they aren’t the only ones on the hunt for the killer.
