    The night the first snow falls a young boy wakes to find his mother gone. He walks through the silent house, but finds only wet footprints on the stairs. In the garden looms a solitary figure: a snowman bathed in cold moonlight, its black eyes glaring up at the bedroom windows. Round its neck is his mother's pink scarf.Inspector Harry Hole is convinced there is a link between the disappearance and a menacing letter he received some months earlier.

    Story

    I have recently read the trilogy by Stig Larsen and have been looking for something to follow this to read. A friend put me onto this book and I have thoroughly enjoyed listening to it.Well written and beautifully narrated it is an enthralling plot with believable characters which engages the listener from start to finish. I am now downloading other books from this author. Absolutely recommended.

    The most dangerous place on earth holds the key to their freedom. When Islamic militants infiltrate an elite British counter-narcotics programme in Afghanistan, disaster is averted thanks to ex-SAS soldiers John Patterson and Dusty Miller. But when fall-out from the affair threatens to topple the West's fragile Afghan alliance and expose failings inside the UK's new crime-fighting agency, John and dusty suddenly find themselves on the wrong side of the law - and on the run.
    "Not far off plagerism?"

    I listened to this book and as it went on it seemed more and more familiar. I finally saw where I was getting this idea from and if you consider the whole book the similarities between this and 'THE MAN WHO WOULD BE KING' are remarkable.
    I don't think I am being unreasonable and I did enjoy listening to the plot updated to two soldiers in Afghanistan.
