_________________

One dark January night a car drives at high speed towards PI Varg Veum, and comes very close to killing him. Veum is certain this is no accident, following so soon after the deaths of two jailed men who were convicted for their participation in a case of child pornography and sexual assault … crimes that Veum himself once stood wrongly accused of committing.

While the guilty men were apparently killed accidentally, Varg suspects that there is something more sinister at play … and that hes on the death list of someone still at large.

Fearing for his life, Veum begins to investigate the old case, interviewing the victims of abuse and delving deeper into the brutal crimes, with shocking results. The wolves are no longer in the dark … they are at his door.

Praise for Gunnar Staalesen

Gunnar 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 teethIan Rankin

Almost forty years into the Varg Veum odyssey, Staalesen is at the height of his storytelling powersCrime Fiction Lover

Staalesen continually reminds us he is one of the finest of Nordic novelistsFinancial Times

Chilling and perilous results — all told in a pleasingly dry styleSunday Times

Staalesen does a masterful job of exposing the worst of Norwegian society in this highly disturbing entryPublishers Weekly

The Varg Veum series is more concerned with character and motivation than spectacle, and its in the quieter scenes that the real drama liesHerald Scotland

Every inch the equal of his Nordic confreres Henning Mankell and Jo NesboIndependent

Not many books hook you in the first chapter – this one did, and never let go!Mari Hannah

With 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 followCrime Fiction Lover

With short, smart, darkly punchy chapters Wolves at the Door is a provocative and gripping readLoveReading

Haunting, dark and totally noir, a great readNew Books Magazine
