{"product_id":"the-son","title":"The Son","description":"The author of the best-selling Harry Hole series now gives us an electrifying stand-alone novel set inside Oslo s maze of especially venal, high-level corruption. \u003cbr\u003e Sonny Lofthus is a strangely charismatic and complacent young man. Sonny s been in prison for a dozen years, nearly half his life. The inmates who seek out his uncanny abilities to soothe leave his cell feeling absolved. They don t know or care that Sonny has a serious heroin habit or where or how he gets his uninterrupted supply of the drug. Or that he s serving time for other peoples crimes. \u003cbr\u003eSonny took the first steps toward addiction when his father took his own life rather than face exposure as a corrupt cop. Now Sonny is the seemingly malleable center of a whole infrastructure of corruption: prison staff, police, lawyers, a desperate priest all of them focused on keeping him high and in jail. And all of them under the thumb of the Twin, Oslo s crime overlord. As long as Sonny gets his dope, he s happy to play the criminal and the prison s in-house savior. \u003cbr\u003eBut when he learns a stunning, long-hidden secret concerning his father, he makes a brilliantly executed escape from prison and from the person he d let himself become and begins hunting down those responsible for the crimes against him . . . The darkly looming question is: Who will get to him first the criminals or the cops?\"","brand":"Knopf Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50804505706728,"sku":"9780385351379","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0810\/9539\/3512\/files\/imageloader_8ec96fe0-5399-4fc7-9aac-c86c960432b2.jpg?v=1790299924","url":"https:\/\/shop.kuumba.app\/products\/the-son","provider":"Kuumba","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
