TRAS CONQUISTAR A 50 MILLONES DE LECTORES, REGRESA EL REY DE LA NOVELA NEGRA CON UN THRILLER LITERARIO MONUMENTAL En lo alto de una montaña, en los páramos de Noruega, hay un viejo caserón habitado por un hombre solitario. Se llama Roy, es experto en pájaros, lleva la gasolinera del pueblo y en cada casa corre un rumor sobre él. Su vida gris se reabre con la vuelta de Carl, su hermano pequeño. No se ven desde que se fue a estudiar a Estados Unidos hace quince años, tras la muerte trágica de sus padres en un accidente de coche. El hijo pródigo trae consigo a su flamante esposa, Shannon, una enigmática arquitecta: han ideado un plan para construir un gran hotel en los antiguos terrenos familiares y podrían hacerse ricos, no solo ellos sino además los vecinos de la zona. Sin embargo, pronto llegan también los malos presagios. Porque es difícil reinventarse en una comunidad pequeña donde todos se conocen, y a los habitantes del lugar les costará olvidar ciertos episodios del pasado. Sobre todo, al agente Olsen, hijo del antiguo alguacil, que desapareció tiempo atrás en extrañas circunstancias. El reino es un thriller gigantesco, adictivo y complejo, que retrata como ningún libro de Nesbø las pasiones humanas, y que ha sido considerado inmediatamente por la crítica una obra maestra.
