The snowman  Cover Image Book Book

The snowman / Jo Nesb?? ; translated from the Norwegian by Don Bartlett.

Nesbø, Jo, 1960- (author.). Bartlett, Don, (translator.).

Summary:

"One night, after the year's first snowfall, a boy named Jonas wakes up and discovers that his mother has disappeared. Only one trace of her remains: a pink scarf, his Christmas gift to her, now worn by the snowman that inexplicably appeared in their yard earlier that day. Inspector Harry Hole suspects a link between the missing woman and a suspicious letter he's received. The case deepens when a pattern emerges: over the past decade, eleven women have vanished -- all on the day of the first snow. But this is a killer who makes his own rules... and he'll break his pattern just to keep the game interesting, as he draws Harry ever closer into his twisted web." -- From publisher's description.
