From the international bestselling author, Hans Olav Lahlum, comes Chameleon People, the fourth murder mystery in the K2 & Patricia series.1972. On a cold March morning the weekend peace is broken when a frantic young cyclist rings on Inspector Kolbjorn `K2` Kristiansen`s doorbell, desperate to speak to the detective. Compelled to help, K2 lets the boy inside, only to discover that he is being pursued by K2`s colleagues in the Oslo police. A bloody knife is quickly found in the young man`s pocket: a knife that matches the stab wounds of a politician murdered just a few streets away. The evidence seems clear-cut, & the arrest couldn`t be easier. But with the suspect`s identity unknown, & the boy refusing to speak, K2 finds himself far from closing the case. & then there is the question that K2 can`t get out of his head: why would a guilty man travel directly to a police detective from the scene of his own brutal crime? ...

” The Chamonix Bike Book” is the only book that shows bikers the best places to ride on this side of the Mont Blanc Massif today. There are mellow cruises & savage climbs, high-octane singletrack & punishing downhills. There is flowy, techy, exhausting, panoramic, windy, foresty, gentle & there`s muddy
- actually, the only thing these rides have in common is that they are all wonderful. Every single one of the rides is classified on a 1-10/10 difficulty scale. Since the majority of the trails are freeridestyle singletracks shared with walkers & trailrunners, there was no existing classification. Like everything else in Chamonix, the scale is not comparable to other mountains; a 3 here might be a 5 somewhere less steep & rocky. Look out for 7 road rides & 34 mountain bike rides, including a summary of the Tour du Mont Blanc. The full colour book has a bling waterproof cover & is printed on mountain-friendly recycled paper with eco-ink. It`s written in English. The mapping is licenced from the French national mapping agency, IGN. The ” Chamonix Bike Book” was put together by a loose collective of riders, photographers, writers & bloggers called the Chamonix Collective, with help from some very talented individuals. The book is photo-rich &, in the words of one reader, successfully `conveys the epicness that is Cham`. Chamonix pro Charlie Davies & ”MTB” photo guru Dan Milner contributed images. Every photo in the book was shot on location in the Chamonix Valley
- nothing`s been tampered with or adjusted; it`s all as the photographers intended.
