Much more. He\u2019s a protector of the family, a business whiz, and, above all, a true fixer\u2014the kind of guy who solves problems. And Os? It\u2019s got no shortage of those. <strong>The Opgard brothers\u2019 past (and present) is soaked in violence<\/strong> (see: <em>The Kingdom<\/em>). But for anyone who wants to become the king of a town like this, that&#8217;s hardly news. Except maybe the part where blood ties start to matter less and less\u2026 What follows is, naturally, a classic Jo Nesb\u00f8 thriller \u2014 clever, twisty, and in this case, laced with an unusually heavy dose of melancholy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">It Was the Man at the Pump<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Yep, the guy at the gas station. He did it all. Every single murder in Os\u2026 <strong>For the record, Roy Opgard is not a brutal, bloodthirsty monster.<\/strong> The fact that an alarming number of Os\u2019s dearly departed met their end at his hands isn\u2019t entirely his fault.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It took an abusive, tormenting father who targeted his own son. And a mother who looked the other way. Everything else followed from that. Oh, and of course, there was the charming, likable, but weak-willed brother, Carl, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The prequel to <em>Blood Ties<\/em> \u2014 <em>The Kingdom<\/em> \u2014 may be a thriller, and a solid one at that, but at its core, it&#8217;s also the life story of a lonely man longing for love. Its heavy, melancholic tone stands in sharp contrast to the looming sense of fate and the constant return of violence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The reclusive, oddball Roy Opgard keeps finding himself backed into hopeless corners, and to claw his way out, he needs a razor-sharp mind, near-inhuman stamina, and relentless determination.<\/strong> Luckily, Jo Nesb\u00f8 equips him with all of that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Blood Ties Begin to Fray<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The biggest flaw in <em>The Kingdom?<\/em> Arguably, the ending. The Shakespearean-style final act just didn\u2019t feel all that convincing. And now we know why\u2014Nesb\u00f8 was saving the real ending for another book. <em>Blood Ties<\/em>, in many ways, is exactly that: an extended finale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, Roy Opgard\u2019s life would be a whole lot easier if he only realized what readers of this book will suspect from the very behinning of the Opgard family\u2019s tragedy-ridden story: that the biggest risk factor in the clever gas station attendant\u2019s life is none other than his own brother, the ever-unreliable Carl. But hey, what can you do? Blood is thicker than water, right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Jo Nesb\u00f8 Gets Lazy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The events of <em>Blood Ties<\/em> unfold over just a few months\u2014hardly enough time for another long, melancholic journey like the one in The Kingdom. Still, the story here echoes its predecessor in more ways than one: business troubles, a fraught triangle involving two brothers and one woman, and of course, the police, still breathing down the Opgard brothers\u2019 necks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s put your mind at ease right away: if you liked The Kingdom, you won\u2019t have much to complain about here. <em>Blood Ties<\/em> delivers a very similar experience.<br><strong><br><\/strong>But in one major respect, it just doesn\u2019t work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As Comrade Stalin once said: \u2018No man, no problem.\u2019 Roy Opgard tends to handle things in much the same spirit. Unfortunately, you can\u2019t always solve everything with murder\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All of Roy Opgard\u2019s other problems\u2014mostly business-related\u2014are basically solved by magic. Jo Nesb\u00f8 simply didn\u2019t put enough effort into making this part of his otherwise thrilling, atmospheric novel gripping. Or maybe he just wasn\u2019t able to\u2026 or was simply too lazy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>But the fact is, whenever Roy Opgard runs into serious trouble, he somehow ends up with some piece of incriminating intel on his enemies\u2014usually within two days, max.<\/strong> Ends up with? Let\u2019s be honest: it just drops right into his lap. Problem solved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In some cases, this \u201cintel\u201d is so petty, insignificant, or downright laughably contrived that it\u2019s impossible to take seriously\u2014especially when it\u2019s all it takes to stop a sworn, lifelong enemy who, up until that point, had been obsessively hunting the Opgards in the name of vengeance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You might be tempted to let out a weary sigh and declare that, sadly, the Opgard saga has gone the way of the Harry Hole series\u2014flattened out and losing steam (see: <em>Knife<\/em>). And you wouldn\u2019t be entirely wrong, if it weren\u2019t for the fact that this book has such an absurdly powerful atmosphere. It\u2019s so thick, so impenetrable, that even the weaker bits can\u2019t quite break through. And then, there\u2019s the other element that helps the whole thing rise above its flaws: Love. Of course it\u2019s love. What else?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Love Is the Cure for Everything<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Well, maybe not everything, but it sure can breathe life into a story steeped in melancholy. Because yes\u2014Roy Opgard is in love. Again. Who\u2019d have thought? Least of all Roy himself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The love story in <em>Blood Ties<\/em> is the best kind of love story there is: that of star-crossed lovers. And who can ever resist one of those? Roy and his unlikely partner face every obstacle imaginable right from the start\u2014an age gap, a tangled past, mental scars, scheming enemies\u2026 not to mention the suspiciously timed deaths \u2014 like a chopped-up relative showing up at the worst possible moment\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Blood Ties<\/em>, despite its flaws<em>, <\/em>still delivers the level of quality we expect from Jo Nesb\u00f8. But what\u2019s truly surprising is that it works best as a love story.<\/strong> Even as he transitions from small-town oddball to aspiring businessman, Roy Opgard faces challenges on every front. But the greatest of them all? Finding redemption\u2014and love. And then, somehow, holding on to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Rating: 8.2\/10<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Blood Ties<\/em> (The Kingdom #2) by Jo Nesb\u00f8<br>384 pages, Hardcover<br>Published in 2025 by <a href=\"https:\/\/knopfdoubleday.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Knopf<\/a><br>&#8212;<br>Note:<br>Jo Nesb\u00f8\u2019s novel, for reasons unknown, makes a point of drawing the reader\u2019s attention to hardcore Norwegian folk music.
