Når det mørkner: Stavern 1983: Det nærmer seg jul, og snøen faller tungt. William Wisting er nyslått tvillingpappa og en fersk og ambisiøs konstabel på politivakta. Under et brutalt ran havner han plutselig i sentrum for dramatiske begivenheter, men mer erfarne politimenn overtar etterforskningen. En vennetjeneste fører ham imidlertid på sporet av en annen forbrytelse. En ikke bare uoppklart, men sannsynligvis også uoppdaget drapssak. Bortgjemt på en forfallen låve står en gammel bil med kulehull i. Og mye tyder på at sjåføren ikke kom levende fra det. Saken skal forme William Wisting som politimann og gi ham en innsikt han vil bære med seg resten av sin yrkeskarriere: Slekt skal følge slekters gang. Nøkkelvitnet: Preben Pramm har ligget død en uke. Han er naken, bundet og har vært utsatt for rystende tortur. Huset er endevendt, men det ser ikke ut til at drapsmennene har funnet det de lette etter. Pramm hadde ingen slektninger eller venner, og tilsynelatende ingen kontakt med mennesker rundt seg. Hva var Pramms hemmelighet? Hvorfor måtte han dø så brutalt? Pocketutgaven av Når det mørkner inneholder også et nyskrevet forord, samt Nøkkelvitnet, som er den første kriminalromanen Jørn Lier Horst skrev, og som tidsmessig plasserer seg etter Når det mørkner.

Wisting kjemper mot klokka og foreldelsesfristen, og ikke minst: mot morderen som trodde han hadde sluppet unna …

Et tåkete, folketomt Stavern, utenfor sesongen: En mann blir funnet bevisstløs på trappa til byens apotek. Han er skutt i magen. Og det er tydelig at noen ville at han skulle bli oppdaget.

Meet Chief Inspector William Wisting, an experienced policeman who is familiar with the dark side of human nature. He lives in challenging times for the Norwegian police force, meeting them with integrity and humanity, and a fragile belief that he can play a part in creating a better world. Dregs begins with a police report giving the place and time of the discovery of a training shoe washed up on the sand, still containing a severed foot from the victim's body, the introduction of CI William Wisting, and the first hint of his health worries. Soon a second shoe is washed up, but it is another left. What is the explanation for this? Has there been some kind of terrible accident at sea? Does it indicate the killing and dismembering of two victims? Is there a link with the unsolved mystery of a number of disappearances in the Larvik area in recent months? In this gripping police procedural, Wisting gradually gets to the bottom of the mystery with the help of his all too human colleagues and his journalist daughter, Line.

William Wisting has a new case to solve during the off-season.

Police Inspector William Wisting has witnessed grotesque murders before, but the desperation he sees in this latest murder is something new.

Wisting, who has spent his life hunting criminals, is now the hunted.

Only three houses away from the policeman’s home, a man has been sitting dead in front of his television set for four months. There are no indications that anything criminal has taken place. Viggo Hansen was a man nobody ever noticed, even though he lived in the midst of a close-knit community. His death doesn’t hit the headlines, but there is something about the case that catches the attention of William Wisting’s journalist daughter, Line, and she decides to write a newspaper article with a different twist for the festive season: the portrait of a completely anonymous and obscure person whose death goes unremarked and unmourned. While Line embarks on her investigations, the police are notified about another death. A male corpse has been found in a forest clearing, and it appears that he has lain there for quite some time. An extremely unexpected discovery on the dead body triggers one of the most extensive manhunts in Norwegian police history. The only thing that can hinder the police in their work, is the media finding out what’s brewing

The Hummel case has bothered William Wisting for more than six months. The investigation into what happened when taxi-driver Jens Hummel disappeared has been fruitless, and he has to endure criticism. A crucial discovery directs suspicion at Dan Roger ‘Danny’ Brodin. The problem is, however, that Danny is already in prison, convicted of another murder. Wisting is accustomed to building up a solid case for the prosecution, but this time things are different. Now he has to use all his expertise and experience to unpick a case that other people already believe to be over and done with. He follows his own convictions - all the way into the courtroom.

Stavern 1983: Christmas is approaching, snow is falling heavily, and a young ambitious policeman named William Wisting has just become the father of twins.

Forgotten in a dilapidated barn stands a bullet riddled old car, and it looks as if the driver did not get out alive. This case will shape William Wisting as a policeman and give him insight that he will carry with him for the rest of his professional career: generations form an unbroken chain.

Et av de mest aktive medlemmene kaller seg Astria og har oppgitt at hun er fra Norge. Hun meddeler at hun er i ferd med å nærme seg en mulig løsning, så blir det brått stille fra henne. Motstrebende lar Wisting seg fascinere av den uortodokse etterforskningen, og han blir trukket inn i det som skal vise seg å være en kriminalsak der forbindelseslinjene er mange, men vage.

William Wisting er tilbake, i høstens mest spennende krimbok fra Jørn Lier Horst. Etter dager og uker med uvanlig mye regn gir jordmassene i et boligområde i Larvik etter. I alt ti hus blir tatt av skredet. Wisting havner midt i redningsarbeidet. Gjennom natten blir alle beboere gjort rede for, og det blir klart at ulykken ikke har krevd menneskeliv. Neste dag blir det likevel funnet en død mann i rasmassene. Nærmere undersøkelser viser at han døde minst 48 timer før raset gikk. Etterforskningen griper inn i flere andre pågående politioperasjoner, og Wisting blir satt til å lede en felles etterforskningsgruppe. Men snart blir det klart at det sitter minst én forræder rundt etterforskerbordet.

HEMMELIGHETENE HAR LIGGET GJEMT PÅ BUNNEN. TIL NÅ. En hard vinter forårsaket store skader på damlukene i Farrisvannet, og før sommeren ble vannet tappet ned for reparasjoner. I den intense sommervarmen synker den gjenværende vannstanden raskt, og den idylliske innsjøen forvandles til et karrig ødeland. Alt som har ligget skjult kommer fram.

En dag i oktober får William Wisting beskjed om at Erik Kaplin skal settes fri. Kaplin har sonet 18 år for drap – og laget seg en dødsliste over dem som medvirket til dommen. Øverst står Wistings navn. Samtidig får Wisting ansvaret for barnebarnet, mens datteren Line reiser til Sør-Afrika for å lage podkast om en lite kjent del av fortiden til Adrian Stiller, den nye lederen for Cold Case-gruppa i Kripos. Ungdomskjæresten hans, Julia Delcourt, forsvant sporløst. Line vil gjenopplive historien – for å finne ut hva som egentlig skjedde, og hva som driver Stiller til å vie livet sitt til uløste saker. Mens Wisting forsøker å leve et normalt liv som barnepasser for barnebarn, dør den gamle sjefen hans. Det som først ser ut som et naturlig dødsfall, viser seg å ha forbindelser til en uoppklart forsvinningssak – en sak som nå ligger på Stillers bord. Mens hemmeligheter avdekkes, vikles nye og gamle spor sammen. Og midt i det hele står Wisting – med et ansvar han aldri ba om, men ikke kan vende ryggen til.
