Wolf Hour by Jo Nesbø
Now, what can I say about Wolf Hour that won’t give too much away? Let’s stick to five things: This is a story set in 2016 Minneapolis, but also in 2022. Gang violence, mysterious murderers, and a very clear suspect. Cops… some great, some not so great, and one who is suspended but doesn’t really listen to that. The murderer and another main character share a tragic past. Taxidermy. That’s all I’ll say on that. My rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ My thoughts I thought the story was great! Th

Addison and Luke are sorting through Luke’s mother’s house after her passing, and it’s almost like a hoarder situation in there.
