The Caveman
Jorn Lier Horst
Anne Bruce
The Fourth William Wisting Mystery Only three houses away from the policeman’s home, a man has been sitting dead in front of his television set for four months. There are no indications that anything criminal has taken place. Viggo Hansen was a man nobody ever noticed, even though he lived in the midst of a close-knit community. His death doesn’t hit the headlines, but there is something about the case that catches the attention of William Wisting’s journalist daughter, Line, and she decides to write a newspaper article with a different twist for the festive season: the portrait of a completely anonymous and obscure person whose death goes unremarked and unmourned.
Reviews of The Caveman
""If you haven't already, introduce yourself to Norway's Chief Inspector William Wisting – you'll warm to home even though his patch can get pretty cold."" The Sunday Sport
Jorn Lier Horst
Jorn Lier Horst was born in 1970, in Bamble, Telemark, Norway. Between 1995 and 2013, when he turned to full time writing, he worked as a policeman in Larvik, eventually becoming head of investigations there. His William Wisting series of crime novels has been extremely successful, having sold more than 500,000 copies in Scandinavia, UK, Germany, Netherlands and Thailand. Dregs, sixth in the series, was published in English by Sandstone Press in 2011, and Closed for Winter, winner of Norway’s Booksellers’ Prize, in 2012. Closed for Winter was also shortlisted for the prestigious Riverton Prize or The Golden Revolver, for best Norwegian crime novel of the year. In 2013 The Hunting Dogs, successor to Closed for Winter won both the Golden Revolver and The Glass Key, which widened the scope to best crime fiction in all the Nordic countries.
