Η νυχτερίδα by Jo Nesbø

A brilliant but troubled Norwegian detective is sent to Australia to assist in the investigation of a young woman’s brutal murder, and soon becomes entangled in a dark, complex case that exposes violent secrets in both the local underworld and his own past. Battling culture shock, personal demons and professional resistance, he must use instinct and unconventional methods to track a clever and dangerous perpetrator before more lives are lost.
