This is an auction for HEADHUNTERS by Jo Nesbo.

"A stellar stand-alone caper . . . The dizzying reversals of fortune and situations that would be over-the-top in lesser hands make for a delightful roller-coaster ride. Carl Hiaasen and Elmore Leonard fans will be delighted.”

• a *** starred *** review in Publishers Weekly (US)

“I am the world’s greatest living crime writer. Jo Nesbo is a man who is snapping at my heels like a rabid pit bull poised to take over my mantle when I dramatically pre-decease him.”

• James Ellroy

Amazon.com review:

"Roger Brown has it all: Norway's most successful headhunter, he is married to a beautiful gallery owner and owns a magnificent house. But he's also a highly accomplished art thief. At a gallery opening, his wife introduces him to Clas Greve. Not only is Greve the perfect candidate for a position that Brown is recruiting for; he is also in possession of The Calydonian Boar Hunt by Rubens, one of the most sought-after paintings in modern art history. Roger sees his chance to become financially independent, and starts planning his biggest theft ever. But soon, he runs into trouble - and it's not financial problems that are threatening to knock him over this time . . . "
