This is chilling, spectacular stuff and anyone looking for serious, and seriously compelling, crime writing need look no further
One of the stars of contemporary crime fiction
Every now and then, a truly exceptional crime novel come along... This superb novel...deserves comparison with the first volume of Stieg Larsson's Millennium trilogy
Jo Nesbo is my new favourite thriller writer and Harry Hole my new hero
Everything zips along, with some excellent red herrings in a tight plot... Nesbo keeps you turning the pages and if your idea of the perfect crime novel is to see Inspector Rebus investigating killings from The Silence of the Lambs, you'll love this
Nesbo, in his fifth, most wide-ranging novel, gradually tightens the narrative grip until, throughout the last 100 pages, the reader also finds it hard to breathe
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
Inventive and extremely creepy
A strong, pacey narrative with plenty of gruesome discoveries
Jo Nesbo conjures up such a gripping sense of terror in The Snowman that his tale of a perverted serial killer with a penchant for the titular figures leaves your wits scrambled
