Beschreibung
Insurance mathematician Henri has his life under control, when a man from the past appears and a shady trio take over the adventure park's equipment supply company … Things are messier than ever in the absurdly funny, heart-stoppingly tense second instalment in Antti Tuomainen's bestselling series… 'In these uncertain times, what better hero than an actuary?' Chris Brookmyre 'One of those rare writers who manages to deftly balance intrigue, noir and a deliciously ironic sense of humour … a delight' Vaseem Khan 'What a book! Antti has managed to put the fun into funerals and take it out of fun fairs in a gripping nail-biter … a thrilling and hilarious read' Liz Nugent **Soon to be a major motion picture starring Steve Carell** _______________________________ Insurance mathematician Henri Koskinen has finally restored order both to his life and to YouMeFun, the adventure park he now owns, when a man from the past appears – and turns everything upside down again. More problems arise when the park's equipment supplier is taken over by a shady trio, with confusing demands. Why won't Toy of Finland Ltd sell the new Moose Chute to Henri when he needs it as the park's main attraction? Meanwhile, Henri's relationship with artist Laura has reached breaking point, and, in order to survive this new chaotic world, he must push every calculation to its limits, before it's too late… Absurdly funny, heart-stoppingly poignant and full of nail-biting suspense, The Moose Paradox is the second instalment in the critically acclaimed, pitch-perfect Rabbit Factor Trilogy and things are messier than ever… ________________________________ 'Finnish crime maestro Antti Tuomainen is unique in the Scandi-crime genre, infusing his crime narratives with the darkest humour … [his] often hilarious, chaotic narrative never vitiates the novel's nicely tuned tension' Financial Times 'Enter hitmen, serendipity, offbeat comedy and the reappearance of literally the last person Henri expects to see … unlike anything else out there' The Times 'A thriller with black comedy worthy of Nabokov' Telegraph Book of the Year Praise for The Rabbit Factor Trilogy **Shortlisted for the CWA Crime in Translation Dagger** **Shortlisted for the Last Laugh Award** 'The antic novels of Antti Tuomainen prove that comedy is not lost in translation …Tuomainen, like Carl Hiaasen before him, has the knack of combining slapstick with genuine emotion' The Times 'The funniest writer in Europe, and one of the very finest … original and brilliant story-telling' Helen FitzGerald 'British readers might think they know what to expect from Nordic noir: a tortured detective, a bleak setting, a brutal crime that shakes a small community. Finnish crime novelist Tuomainen turns all of this on its head … The ear of a giant plastic rabbit becomes a key weapon. It only gets darker and funnier' Guardian 'Dark, gripping and hilarious … Tuomainen is the Carl Hiaasen of the fjords' Martyn Waites 'A triumph, a joyous, feel-good antidote to troubled times' Kevin Wignall 'Finland's greatest export' M.J. Arlidge 'You don't expect to laugh when you're reading about terrible crimes, but that's what you'll do when you pick up one of Tuomainen's decidedly quirky thrillers' New York Times 'Tuomainen is the funniest writer in Europe' The Times 'Right up there with the best' Times Literary Supplement 'Tuomainen continues to carve out his own niche in the chilly tundras of northern' Daily Express
