It is just after nightfall in Bislett, a quiet student neighbourhood in central Oslo, when two children armed with hand grenades step off a bus and approach their target.
As undergraduates pile out of bars and stumble to their dorms, the 13-year-old boys arrive at a nail salon and hurl the grenades at the shop front.
The blast shatters windows, riddles brick walls with shrapnel and triggers a bomb alert on Oslo’s emergency text message system. The boys vanish into the night.
They have just completed their first major operation for Foxtrot, a crime syndicate that originated in Sweden but is now expanding across the border into Norway.
Foxtrot is one of Europe’s most ruthless criminal networks linked to dozens, if not hundreds, of bomb attacks and attempted contract killings as its foot soldiers vie for control of the Scandinavian drug trade.
