Joe Nesbo, a travelling salesman, was staying at a hotel for business. He was having a dinner meeting that night, so he decided to take a nap in the middle of the afternoon. He was awakened by a knock at the door, and then a man walked in. “Oh my, I’m terribly sorry, this isn’t my room. Please, pardon the intrusion.” The man calmly backed out and left. Nesbo got up and locked the door – something he forgot to do before his nap – and lay back down on the bed. But then he shot up in bed and called the lobby to tell them there was a burglar on the prowl. What made Nesbo think that?

He became suspicious of a prowler because it would not be normal to knock on your own hotel room door before entering.

A burglar might do this to see if anyone was in the room. If there was nor response they could easily enter the room and take what they wanted.
Nesbo realized that if the man really believed that was his hotel room he would have had a room key. Since he was knocking, it is likely that he was merely checking whether the room was occupied or not. If it was empty, he could break in and take what he wanted.
