The Dark Side of Winter - A Lotte-Marie novel

The Dark side of Winter is a humorous crime novel (satire) and the third book about the charming Norwegian novel figure Lotte-Marie and a parody of Knife written by Jo Nesbo - as Nesbo "borrowed" this story from the author Trude Helén Hole. Nesbo and Hole had a realtionship for three years, and the manuscript was often a topic of conversation between the two of them. Norway´s dear, beloved heroine Lotte-Marie has left the glamorous life in California and returned to Oslo where she experiences loneliness, drama and excitement.
She also puts her life at stake in her eagerness to help the brilliant, audaciously rogue police officer, Barry Hole and the sexy detective Varg Lerum to solve the brutal and mysterious Match.com murders. If you like it a bit fierce, raw, sexy, exciting, perverted and funny - then this is the book for you. #Parody - Don´t say a word - undress and put your blindfold on. Now I´m coming for you! "In short; fresh and lively language and lots of funny pictures and scenes.
Hole has probably created her own genre with these books." Jan Ove Ekeberg "Just finished The Dark side of Winter. I agree that it was even better! Got my laughting muscles trimmed properly. Incredibly good sence of humor and a wonderful reading experience." Marianne Anker "The book caught me from about 50 shades and from then I just had to read the rest. Hole is a great author; damn funny and very spot on.
Not to mention the eroticism she conveys. Highly recommended!" Gro Storteig "This book is a success. Hole is never boring. She uses all means to keep us: good excitement, humor, craziness, political assessments, thematic information, serial killers and sex. I loved it! What we want more of in the next book about Lotte-Marie; more of everything!" Øyvind Fygd "I read a lot of books and I´m not easily impressed, so this was just amazing! I discovered Hole's books in a independent authorgroup, and then found her on YouTube and I thought: that lady is tough! I have to read her books! So I did, and I will read all her books from now! " Marianne H.
Jensen "LOL. The authors empathy and use of her own experiences in her texts gives an insight into a person you have rarely or never seen before. The books are characterized by sensuality, love and devilry, well whipped together by Norway's best female author." Rune Chr. Tollefsen Norwegian record for a debutant. The Truth About Lotte-Marie is Trude Helén Hole's debut novel and the first about the unconventional Lotte-Marie.
The novel was published in 2006 and sold over 6, 000 which at the time was a Norwegian record. According to media and readers, the books about Lotte-Marie from the north coast in Norway are simply the best within the humor genre and are often referred to as Norway's feministic, refreshing and humorous answers to our gloomy, tired and semi-alcoholic crime heroes such as Harry Hole and Varg Veum written by Jo Nesbø and Gunnar Staalelsen. UNISEX.
Humor, irony, intelligence, romance, sex and excitement, and sometimes crime and murderer are good reading material for both sexes. The books might be read separately. "Better than Bridget Jones."
