Outcast

Blix & Ramm hunt a sniper on the loose in Oslo, as the city boils over with fear, and it becomes clear that the next targets may be closer to home. The devastating, searing next instalment in the addictive Blix & Ramm series . . .

With Alexander Blix dismissed from the police force and Emma Ramm's career as a news blogger now behind her, the pair have teamed up to form their own private-investigation agency. But business is slow, until Emma's sister is shot by a sniper in Oslo's main square in the midst, leaving Emma responsible for her 12-year-old niece, and with an extremely personal case to solve.

But the shooting isn't a one-off. Over the course of a scorchingly hot summer, the sniper strikes again – and again – striking fear into the people of Oslo and setting the police on the trail of either a serial killer or a ruthless and unpredictable terrorist, set on causing mayhem.

But Blix has other ideas. The pattern of killings suggests to him that the shooter has a single target and using others as cover for his deadly plans. With the police skeptical about his theories, Blix and Ramm must go it alone to stop a killer who seems set on avenging himself against a society from which he is an outcast . . . before he strikes again.

Searing, tense and full of twists and turns, Outcast is the breathtaking sixth instalment in the number-one bestselling Blix & Ramm series, and this time danger is far too close to home…
