A Question of Guilt Summary

A Question of Guilt: The heart-pounding new novel from the No. 1 bestseller by Jorn Lier Horst

The chilling and heart-pounding new novel from Norwegian superstar Jorn Lier Horst

INSPIRATION FOR THE HIT BBC FOUR SHOW WISTING

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

A killer caught. A murder sentence served. But did they arrest the wrong man?
_______

In 1999, seventeen-year-old Tone Vaterland was killed on her way home from work.

The police - desperate for a quick conviction - deemed the investigation an open-and-shut case and sent her embittered ex-boyfriend, Danny Momrak, down for murder.

Her family was able to grieve. The public felt justice had been done. The streets were safe again.

But twenty years later, William Wisting receives an anonymous letter suggesting that the wrong man was convicted, and worse yet: the real murderer is still out there.

Thrown into a terrifying race against time, Wisting must find the sender and catch the real killer before they strike again.

But nothing is as it seems. And as Wisting disappears further into a dark past of secrets, lies and murder, his own life is threatened . . .

Can he find Tone's true killer before it's too late?
