🌟Happy Publication Day!🌟 We are thrilled th 🌟Happy Publication Day!🌟 We are thrilled that THE MERCIFUL KILLER by Patrik Svensson is officially out in Sweden today, published by Albert Bonniers Förlag. The author of the overwhelmingly successful debut THE GOSPEL OF EELS and THE BLUE MARBLE (2022) is back with his third book: THE MERCIFUL KILLER is a meticulous examination of a harrowing human fate, but also a searing depiction of a community resigned to its place in the world — a place they knew to be both predetermined and unchanging. For enquiries, please reach out to Johanna Lindborg.

It will be published 3/7. The rights have also been sold for publication in Chinese, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, French, German, Norwegian and Polish. 🌟 ENGAGEMENT is a masterful mordern classic, set in Stockholm during the 60’s and 70’s, a time of change when the nuclear family is questioned. The young couple Martina and Gustav try to break the mould and make their relationship work. They give up and leave each other, but always seem to come back to one another. Still, Martina discovers how difficult it can be to live without a ”husband” when everyone around you is creating their own families and coupling up. First published in 1976, ENGAGEMENT has been re-discovered by recent generations who can recognise themselves in the modern themes in this stark and unromantic love story.

🌟 Happy publication day! 🌟 We are so excite 🌟 Happy publication day! 🌟 We are so excited that THE STORY OF ABBA: MELANCHOLY UNDERCOVER by Jan Gradvall is officially out in the US today, published by our friends at St. Martin’s Press. 🇺🇸 ABBA remains one of the world’s most famous and beloved bands of all time. It doesn’t matter that over 40 years have passed since their infamous breakup. Somewhere in the world, there is always an ABBA song playing. With unique access to the four secretive members of ABBA for the past decade, Jan Gradvall has written an unusual biography. Based on openhearted interviews, he sheds new light on some of the most memorable moments and lets us know what happened off-stage. The title comes from a quote by Benny Andersson, commenting on ABBA’s music: ’Even the happiest songs have a melancholic base. We made melancholy undercover.’ For inquiries, reach out to Johanna Lindborg.
🌟 Rights sold! 🌟 Maria Adolfsson’s TRUTH 🌟 Rights sold! 🌟 Maria Adolfsson’s TRUTH OR DARE is a witty and intense relationship novel about what happens when a woman who has always done right by everyone has her life turned upside down, and decides to start doing right by herself. Now this wonderful novel will reach readers in Estonia and Finland! 🇪🇪 🇫🇮 Here are some review highlights: 💬 ”In addition to an atmospheric scene where lightning strikes, there is a great drive and many clever turns in this story about getting revenge, and justice.” - DN 💬 ”It is a joy to follow the main character’s journey from being shattered to being satisfied, and dramaturgically the story is full of turns. […] Many themes are covered on the 300 or so pages - parents who cannot cope with parenthood, friendships that stay intact in spite of great strain, the knowledge that you can never truly know another person, and lies that are told to protect yourself. Maria Adolfsson successfully brings this all together, and now we have to wait and see if this is a temporary step away from crime literature. I would gladly read more books by her in this genre.” - Sydsvenskan For enquiries, please reach out to Johanna Lindborg.

✨ Erik Winter is back! ✨ Happy publication da ✨ Erik Winter is back! ✨ Happy publication day to THE DIRTY RIVER by Åke Edwardson! In the 14th instalment in the series about Erik Winter, the Detective Inspector and his trusted partner Bertil Ringmar are faced with an unusually difficult case, when several young women are attacked in Gothenburg. The crimes resemble incidents that took place seven years earlier, but the perpetrator was never caught. In the middle of the investigation, Ringmar has to leave for Kuala Lumpur, where his son Martin has been reported missing. Soon, Bertil needs Erik’s help on the ground. Edwardson returns to the crime genre with Erik Winter’s final case. The result is an enigmatic and linguistically exqusite suspense novel from a master of the genre.

We are delighted to have recieved the Norwegian ed We are delighted to have recieved the Norwegian edition of KAFKA'S LUNG by Cecilia Hansson! 🇳🇴 ✨ KAFKA'S LUNG is a close, personal reading of Franz Kafka's collected wortks, in the light of our times. In the novel, Hansson follows in Kafka's footsteps, digging deep into her own history, through his, searching for life before the air runs out in her lungs... Here are some review highlights: 💬 ‘Cecilia Hansson reminds us of the body’s importance while we are all caught up in the cerebral creation, and that is really worth something.’ - Aftonbladet 💬 ‘A strange, at times shimmeringly beautiful book.’ - Göteborgs-Posten 💬 'Cecilia Hansson thinks and coughs in Kafka's footsteps. It's a little embarrassing, grandiose and deeply fascinating. [...] For what female author, for lack of a better word, has the balls to compare herself to Franz Kafka? Answer: only Sweden's Cecilia Hansson.' - Klassekampen For inquiries, reach out to Johanna Lindborg.
