About this listen

When PI Varg Veum is approached to find a missing girl by a half sister he barely knew, his investigation takes him deep into the dark web and some personal history he'd rather forget....

Varg Veum receives a surprise visit in his office. A woman introduces herself as his half sister, and she has a job for him. Her goddaughter, a 19-year-old trainee nurse from Haugesund, moved from her bedsit in Bergen two weeks ago. Since then no one has heard anything from her. She didn't leave an address. She doesn't answer her phone. And the police refuse to take her case seriously. Veum's investigation uncovers a series of carefully covered up crimes and pent-up hatreds, and the trail leads to a gang of extreme bikers on the hunt for a group of people whose dark deeds are hidden by the anonymity of the internet. And then things get personal....

Chilling, shocking and exceptionally gripping, Big Sister reaffirms Gunnar Staalesen as one of the world's foremost thriller writers.

Loved it!

I love Gunnar Staalesen’s books and I live Scandinavian mysteries. He’s one of the best. And Colin Mace reading is wonderful. I can’t imagine anyone else reading the book.

Private Invsetigator Varg Veum at Work!

As a huge fan of the Varg Veum series on MHz Choice, I decided to check out one of the books featuring this cool, dedicated private investigator, created and written by Gunnar Staalesen. It's a fairly standard plot -- Varg is hired to find a young woman who has gone missing. But, the twists and turns of the plot take Varg all over Norway and beyond, illustrating his dogged dedication to completing his mission.

It's a good book -- dark with some difficult moments. But, Varg is clever and smart and always figures things out.

The narration is fine and easy to understand. I wish I knew the locations mentioned but since I've never been to Norway, oh well!
