Product Information

Hunted. Imprisoned. She'll never beg forMercyJussi Adler-OlsenThe No. 1 International BestsellerMercy by Jussi Adler-Olsen is Scandinavia's new bestselling crime writing sensation...At first the prisoner scratches at the walls until her fingers bleed. But there is no escaping the room. With no way of measuring time, her days, weeks, months go unrecorded. She vows not go mad. She will not give her captors the satisfaction. She will die first. Copenhagen detective Carl Morck has been taken off homicide to run a newly created department for unsolved crimes. His first case concerns Merete Lynggaard, who vanished five years ago. Everyone says she's dead. Everyone says it's a waste of time. He thinks they're right. The voice in the dark is distorted, harsh and without mercy. It says the prisoner's torture will only end when she answers one simple question. It is one she has asked herself a million times: WHY is this happening?A dark and mysterious story, Mercy establishes Jussi Adler-Olsen as the master of the Nordic thriller. `This pitch-black novel will have readers hungry for more' - Independent `The new it boy of Nordic Noir' - The Times `Gripping storytelling' - Guardian Jussi Adler-Olsen was born in Copenhagen and worked as a magazine editor and publisher before starting to write fiction.
