With his thriller "Mortal," the Norwegian Thomas Enger has made a dream debut on the literary horizon. The story starts innocently enough, with reporter Henning Juul returning to work after a tragic apartment fire. No sooner is he back than Henning is called to a press conference by the Oslo police, where he is confronted with the brutal murder of a young student. As he recharges, Henning delves deeper into the case and finds himself caught in the crossfire. The story becomes increasingly thrilling, making it hard to put the book down. And it even surprises on the 400th page; nothing is as it seems at first glance. Pure suspense, then. Top score, and I am already looking forward to the continuation of the Henning Juul series, hoping to learn more about the fire that cost him his son and his facial skin.
