Memo From A Murderer

Only a week apart, two foreign prostitutes are murdered in Oslo. They are both subjects of a leading Russian crime network. Found at the last crime scene is a letter addressed to Detective Eddie Samson. More hints from the murderer emerge, and Samson and his colleague Bernhard Fiske realise that they are dealing with an intelligent, and most likely, mentally disturbed person.

Suddenly the whole murder investigation changes. Samson realises that the murderer may very well be after him, and he is playing an ice cold game that eerily pulls him further into the case.

Memo From A Murderer is a new book about special detectives Samson and Fiske, whom Jan-Erik Knudsen introduced us to in A Foe To Fear in 2008.

Jan Erik Knudsen is always welcome with more tense excitement of his usual quality. If he keeps this up, he will quickly put himself in the top echelons of Norwegian crime writers. This is almost impossible to ignore."
