Drowned, set in the idyllic countryside during a short-lived Swedish summer,
gets under one's skin from the first page, creating an atmosphere of foreboding
in which even the perfume of freshly picked vegetables roasting in the kitchen
becomes ominous.
Marina has left behind her stalled relationship and floundering career in
Stockholm to visit her sister in rural Skåne, where she lives in a house full of
books, gorgeous flowers and, as Marina soon learns, many secrets. Nothing is as
it seems in this spellbinding novel of psychological suspense that combines
hothouse sensuality with ice-cold fear on every page.
More than a mere thriller, this debut novel delves deep into the feminine soul
and at the same time exposes the continuing oppression of women in Sweden's
supposedly enlightened society. Mixing hothouse sensuality with ice-cold fear on
every page, Drowned heralds the emergence of a major new talent on the
international scene.
