The wolves are no longer in the dark  they are at his door._________________Praise for Gunnar StaalesenGunnar Staalesen is one of my very favourite Scandinavian authors. Operating out of Bergen in Norway, his private eye, Varg Veum, is a complex but engaging anti-hero. Varg means wolf  in Norwegian, and this is a series with very sharp teeth Ian RankinAlmost forty years into the Varg Veum odyssey, Staalesen is at the height of his storytelling powers Crime Fiction LoverStaalesen continually reminds us he is one of the finest of Nordic novelists Financial TimesChilling and perilous results - all told in a pleasingly dry style Sunday TimesStaalesen does a masterful job of exposing the worst of Norwegian society in this highly disturbing entry Publishers Weekly'The Varg Veum series is more concerned with character and motivation than spectacle, and its in the quieter scenes that the real drama lies Herald Scotland'Every inch the equal of his Nordic confreres Henning Mankell and Jo Nesbo' IndependentNot many books hook you in the first chapter - this one did, and never let go! Mari HannahWith an expositional style that is all but invisible, Staalesen masterfully compels us from the first pages  If youre a fan of Varg Veum, this is not to be missed, and if youre new to the series, this is one of the best ones. Youre encouraged to jump right in, even if the Norwegian names can be a bit confusing to follow Crime Fiction LoverWith short, smart, darkly punchy chapters Wolves at the Door is a provocative and gripping read LoveReadingHaunting, dark and totally noir, a great read New Books Magazine\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67962285719840,"sku":"NEW1912374412","price":21.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/612qwoOoNgL.jpg?v=1792893515","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/en-ca\/products\/wolves-at-the-door-varg-veum-series-1912374412","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
