Sommernachtstod

A child disappears, a village remains silent - a gripping crime novel by Sweden's award-winning author Anders de la Motte. A shadow seems to hang over a village in southern Sweden since the little Billy Lindh vanished without a trace 20 years ago. The boy's mother subsequently took her own life, and a suspect, who could not be proven guilty, disappeared, leaving his wife and children behind. Now, Billy's sister, therapist Vera Lindh, returns to her hometown: her new patient Isak has told her an alarming story about a missing boy, and Vera wants to finally know what really happened back then. Not everyone in the village is pleased with her persistent questions. And how trustworthy is Isak, really? "An absolutely brilliant crime novel! So insightful and empathetic, and at the same time, incredibly thrilling." Kristina Ohlsson "A gripping crime story with an atmospheric setting, strong characters, and an exciting plot! With 'Sommernachtstod,' Anders de la Motte has proven that he is one of Sweden's most talented crime authors!" Erik Axl Sund "A masterful crime novel [...]. You can't put it down; the plot is impressive, and the resolution is completely surprising." Tara.
