Mirror Image

By Gunnar Staalesen

Translated by Don Bartlett

Orenda Books

Publication Date: 31 August 2023

As in many industries, there can be a real focus on the next new name as this can often mean that some existing authors can slip under the radar. However consistency and longevity are qualities that cannot and shouldn't be ignored. A case in point should certainly be Gunnar Staalesen. He has been writing novels of Bergen based private detective Varg Veum for many years with in excess of 20 now in print in his native Norway. By my calculation, this is his thirteenth English language translation and while I can't claim to have read them all, I individually appreciate the quality of each of those that I have read so far.  Fortunately Staalesen doesn't oblige you to read his novels in order, although his age and relationship status may change, each can be fully enjoyed as a standalone novel. Likewise each not only confronts relevant social issues but also seem to tell us a lot about human nature. 

If there is a theme to Mirror Image, then perhaps it would be exploitation. It can be seen in some of the dysfunctional relationships presented in the story but also has a wider transcontinental significance. While this story has not been written in the last few years, there is a strong relevance to its considerations and a timeless quality. Veum may not have a computer and he certainly doesn't have any hacking skills so his investigations have to be done via traditional methods, his favourite being to question those individuals suspected of holding information in their personal homes. 

When Veum meets a lawyer by chance it transpires that she has been looking to contact him. She wants him to privately investigate the disappearance of her sister and her husband without alerting the authorities. He also finds himself occupied with the imminent arrival of a ship with undisclosed and mysterious cargo. Gradually it appears that the two cases could be linked in someway while the missing couple bring back memories of a tragedy that occurred more than a generation ago which Veum becomes convinced may also have some relevance.  Could lightning really strike the same family twice? 

Methodically he attempts to investigate the background of the key characters involved yet there are many layers that he needs to delve through before he can uncover a realistic version of the truth. 

Translated as always by Don Bartlett, the descriptions are rich and the language vibrant. Mirror Image is one of those books that you will happily make more time for, just to uncover one more clue or witness another encounter.  There are no silly shocks or scares but there are genuinely unforeseen surprises which make Mirror Image as compelling a Nordic Noir novel as any that you're likely to read this year. 

The Blurb

Bergen Private Investigator Varg Veum is perplexed when two wildly different cases cross his desk at the same time. A lawyer, anxious to protect her privacy, asks Varg to find her sister, who has disappeared with her husband, seemingly without trace, while a ship carrying unknown cargo is heading towards the Norwegian coast, and the authorities need answers.

Varg immerses himself in the investigations, and it becomes clear that the two cases are linked, and have unsettling – and increasingly uncanny – similarities to events that took place thirty-six years earlier, when a woman and her saxophonist lover drove their car into the sea, in an apparent double suicide.

As Varg is drawn into a complex case involving star-crossed lovers, toxic waste and illegal immigrants, history seems determined to repeat itself in perfect detail … and at terrifying cost...

ABOUT GUNNAR STAALESEN

One of the fathers of Nordic Noir, Gunnar Staalesen was born in Bergen, Norway, in 1947.

He made his debut at the age of twenty-two with Seasons of Innocence and in 1977 he published the first book in the Varg Veum series. He is the author of over twenty titles, which have been published in twenty-four countries and sold over four million copies.

Twelve film adaptations of his Varg Veum crime novels have appeared since 2007, starring the popular Norwegian actor Trond Espen Seim. Staalesen has won three Golden Pistols (including the Prize of Honour). Where Roses Never Die won the 2017 Petrona Award for Nordic Crime Fiction, and Big Sister was shortlisted for the award in 2019. He lives with his wife in Bergen.

Many thanks to Anne Cater at Random Things Tours for inclusion on the blog tour and to Orenda Books for an advance copy of Mirror Image. Please check out the other reviews of this book on the blog tour as shown below.

Красивый мужчина, на мой взгляд, с этакой харизмой “настоящего мачо”, хотя и японец

Раз уж запостила 2 любимых постера к японским фильмам, то просто не могу не добавить любимый постер к Варгу Веуму

Да, забыла дописать фильм “Перекресток Миллера” вдогонку к гонконгскому синема. И уж, конечно, “Цзян ху” - это не стилистика Джона Ву и мелодраматических “Светлое будущее”, “Триады” и “Город в огне” с Чоу Юн Фатом, это как раз ближе к японскому якудза-эйга,
