Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

FAMILY COMES FIRST. NO MATTER THE COST.

Brothers Carl and Roy Opgard have succeeded in life. Or at least they’ve had as much success as is possible in a small town like Os, where they've killed their way to the top. Carl manages the swanky spa hotel, while Roy has made ambitious plans for an amusement park.

Life’s good at the top. But the local sheriff is looking to bring them down.

Sheriff Kurt Olsen believes he has new evidence that will prove the brothers’ involvement in several past murders – but Carl and Roy are used to covering their tracks, and they're not afraid to get their hands dirty.

The body count in Os is about to get even higher.

Blood Ties is an explosive suspense novel about family, loyalty, and the lengths someone is willing to go to for both, from crime writing's king of the cliffhanger.

'A 100% buy-today-read-tonight delight' LEE CHILD

'Nesbo’s plotting is always reliably devious and his characters brutal'

Great translation of a brilliant author

No complaints. I was hooked from the very beginning. Great plot with plenty of twists and turns to keep you guessing.

Unusual

An oddly compelling listen, almost a reluctant pleasure. Can’t quite explain why. Likewise I can’t say I enjoyed it exactly but I’m glad I listened to it.

Jo Nesbo excels again.

As cold and dark as it's setting, " Blood Ties" is compelling and riveting. Another winner from Jo Nesbo.
Sean Barrett's delivery is perfect for Nesbo's novels.
