Jo Nesbo: The Kingdom

Description

When Roy and Carl's parents die suddenly, Roy is left as protector to his impulsive younger brother. But when Carl decides to travel the world in search of his fortune, Roy stays behind in their sleepy village, satisfied with his peaceful life as a mechanic.

Years later, Carl returns full of exciting plans to build a legacy in their family name, and a willingness to do whatever it takes to fulfil his ambitions. But it's only a matter of time before what begins as a jubilant homecoming sparks off a series of events that threaten to derail everything Roy has worked for and family loyalty is stretched to violent ends.
