About “Macbeth”
Inspector Macbeth is considered as tough as almost any other police officer. In a run-down industrial city in the north, he makes deal after deal fall through, and the drug lords find no way past him.
Then comes the point at which money, recognition and influence seem within reach. Macbeth realizes that his origins will deny him advancement unless he is willing to kill. His lover urges him on, and rivals disappear one after another.
With every murder he moves closer to a power he once fought against himself. How far will he go, and is there a point at which he can still turn back?
Who is “Macbeth” for?
For readers of crime novels with a protagonist who slides into darkness as the story unfolds, this volume offers dense material. The mix of drug milieu, lust for power and morality appeals to readers who like to follow morally questionable heroes. Readers who know the author will find further books by Jo Nesbø in “Der König” or “Blutmond”.
When is “Macbeth” the best read?
At just over 600 pages, the crime novel needs several evenings or a long weekend. As an audiobook running about nineteen hours, it accompanies long car journeys or walks through the city. Anyone who wants a dark mood in winter will find the right atmosphere in the harsh north of the story.
