Three Hours

The explosive third novel in the Ewert Grens--Piet Hoffmann trilogy, which began with THREE SECONDS.

Stockholm, Sweden. Seventy-three refugees have been found dead, suffocated in a container at Varta harbour.

Niamey, Niger. Ewert Grens arrives in a city he's never heard of, in search of a man he never thought he would see again.

Piet Hoffmann has again got himself in too deep, infiltrating a West African trafficking ring. He thinks he has two weeks to extricate himself, but will learn that his life, and that of countless defenceless people, now hangs on his actions during three desperate hours.

“"Twisty plot makes for propulsive reading."-- Entertainment Weekly”

Roslund / Hellstrom are among the very best crime novelists around. They write with courage and intensity about the important issues of our time.

Extraordinarily compelling.

[In Ewert Grens] the authors have created an eccentric, alienated, socially inept hero worthy of comparison with Swedish mystery master Henning Mankell's Inspector Kurt Wallander. - Wall Street Journal

Roslund and Hellstrom are Sweden's most acclaimed fiction duo.

Award-winning journalist Anders Roslund is the founder and former head of Kulturnyheterna (Culture News) on Swedish television, and for many years worked as a news reporter - specializing in criminal and social issues - and as an Editor-in-chief at Rapport and Aktuellt, Sweden's two foremost news programmes.

Borge Hellstrom (1957-2017) was an ex-convict who brought a unique insight into the brutal reality of criminal life. He worked with the rehabilitation of young offenders and drug addicts, and was one of the founders of the crime prevention organization KRIS (Criminals Return Into Society).

Their DCI Ewert Grens novels have won the Glass Key Award, the Best Swedish Crime Novel award, the CWA International Dagger, appeared on the New York Times bestseller list, been translated into 31 different languages, and their worldwide sales are approaching 3 million copies.
