Snømannen by Jo Nesbø
3.0
Interesting read.
On the first day of snow, a child wakes up to find his mother has disappeared during the night. Outside, a snowman has appeared out of nowhere, the calling card of one of the most terrifying serial killers in recent fiction. A letter from the perpetrator draws Detective Hole further and further into the case, and together with his new partner, Katrine Bratt, he hunts the Snowman through twists and turns that become increasingly personal and may drive Hole to the brink of insanity.
Started reading this while backpacking and found it too-o-o frightening to continue. After returning home, I finished the book and it did not seem nearly as frightening.
I had an idea of who the snowman might be several times before the reveal. I found it interesting the way the author introduced the characters to you and built suspense. This was my first Jo Nesbø read. Not sure if I will read more.
