#1 New York Times bestselling author Jo Nesbo's story "The Jealousy Man" is soon to be the major motion picture Killer Heat starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Shailene Woodley, and Richard Madden – from Amazon MGM Studios and streaming on Prime Video.
From “the greatest contemporary writer of the thriller” (The New York Times), THE JEALOUSY MAN is a dark and chilling short story collection that takes us on a journey of twisted minds and vengeful hearts.
Jo Nesbø is known the world over as a consummate mystery/thriller writer. Famed for his deft characterization, hair-raising suspense and shocking twists, Nesbø’s dexterity with the dark corners of the human heart is on full display in these inventive and enthralling stories.
A detective with a nose for jealousy is on the trail of a man suspected of murdering his twin; a bereaved father must decide whether vengeance has a place in the new world order after a pandemic brings about the collapse of society; a garbage man fresh off a bender tries to piece together what happened the night before; a hired assassin matches wits against his greatest adversary in a dangerous game for survival; and an instantly electric connection between passengers on a flight to London may spell romance, or something more sinister.
With Nesbø's characteristic gift for outstanding atmosphere and gut-wrenching revelations, The Jealousy Man confirms that he is at the peak of his abilities.
Reviews
“The twelve tales in this impressive collection from bestseller Nesbø (the Harry Hole series) blend taut suspense with sharply limned characters. . . . Frederick Forsyth fans will be enthralled.”—Publishers Weekly
"Nesbø delivers stories ranging from dystopian visions to time-honored tales of duplicity and revenge. . . . Wonderfully atmospheric. . . . He never runs out of ideas."
—Kirkus Reviews
