If you’ve seen The Snowman, then you’re going to recognize the main character of that police thriller, Detective Harry Hole, even though Michael Fassbender isn’t playing him this time. Instead, Tobias Santelmann is taking the leading role in Jo Nesbø’s Detective Hole.

The show is based on Jo Nesbø‘s fifth Harry Hole novel, The Devil’s Star, and there’s a serial killer on the loose in Oslo.
