Cockroaches by Jo Nesbø

4.0

---

Continuing with Jo Nesbo’s Harry Hole series and having started in Sydney Australia with book 1, I enjoyed meeting Harry in The Bat and was happy to find him maturing as a man and a detective in Cockroaches, the second book of the series which I am reading in order as I’ve come late to Jo Nesbo’s work. This time Harry travels to Bangkok, Thailand and begins to conquer his addictions as he unravels a more complicated mystery with a wealth of interesting characters. I’m really looking forward to getting to know Harry better as the series moves back to Norway, the Scandinavian noir setting that has grown the popularity of the genre. From what I can tell from the reviews, this series will just get better and better!
