Trade ReviewHarry Hole is fully formed as the difficult, vulnerable personality we have come to know. The evocation of Australia itself has the customary Nesbo expertise...most satisfyingly - we can now see the organic shape that Nesbo always intended his work to take * Independent *
An ambitious, fun, exciting and original crime novel * Smålandsposten (Sweden) *
The Bat is a truly captivating crime novel * Berliner Morgenpost (Germany) *
The Bat is innovative and different, and the pace that Jo Nesbo creates in his debut novel makes you long for more crime novels featuring Harry Hole * Kristeligt Dagblad (Denmark) *
Jo Nesbo has written the cleverest debut novel in the crime genre that I've read in a long time * Aftenposten (Norway) *
