A Question of Guilt

Pre-order the chilling and heart-pounding new novel from Norwegian superstar Jørn Lier Horst.

THE INSPIRATION FOR THE HIT BBC FOUR SHOW WISTING

A chilling letter. A wrong conviction. One last chance to find the real killer.

'Up there with the best of the Nordic crime writers' THE TIMES _______

Wisting is back with his most gripping case yet.

In 1999, seventeen-year-old Tone Vaterland was killed on her way home from work. Desperate for a conviction the police deemed the investigation an open-and-shut case and sent her spurned boyfriend, Danny Momrak, down for murder.

But twenty years later Detective William Wisting receives a puzzling letter. It suggests the wrong man was convicted for Tone's death and the real murderer is still out there, and could kill again. . .
