Bad Harvest
Bad Harvest
Maria AdolfssonA violent storm. An isolated peninsula. And a killer among them. Welcome back to Doggerland!
A sudden and devastating storm sweeps across Doggerland just as the oyster season begins and the annual harvest festival opens. When the only road to Njord’s Point collap ses, guests and locals alike are cut off from the mainland— among them Detective Karen Eiken Hornby’s husband Leo and their daughter Selma. Forced to remain behind, Karen can only follow events from afar as the storm rages and tensions rise on the peninsula. Gathered in the restaurant overlooking the sea, the stranded group seeks shelter from the elements—unaware that before the night is over, one of them will be dead. At the same time, a man on the run reaches land on the other side of the bay. As the storm intensifies, past secrets surface and hidden connections emerge, tightening the circle around both victim and killer.
With its locked-room atmosphere, relentless pacing, and richly drawn setting, Bad Harvest is a gripping new instalment in the internationally bestselling ‘Doggerland’ series. A masterfully constructed, atmospheric crime novel where nature itself becomes an accomplice. With a tightly
wound plot and a compelling cast of characters, Adolfsson once again proves why she is at the forefront of Nordic Noir.
