Håkan NesserSecrets ignite across decades in a thrilling return to Maardam
It began thirty years ago—with an arson attack and a book. The fire claimed four lives; the book became a bestseller. Now Judith—under an assumed name—returns to her hometown to uncover the truth behind the tragedy. Something does not add up. Was the convicted man truly guilty?
At the same time, Judge Swann faces a very different case: a celebrated author stands accused of tax evasion. What appears straightforward soon reveals darker undercurrents, with an immaculate debt collector pulling strings behind the scenes. As past and present collide, hidden connections emerge and long-buried truths demand to be told.
In Domino, Håkan Nesser masterfully intertwines two seemingly separate investigations into a gripping exploration of justice, morality, corruption, power, and memory. With his signature blend of suspense, irony, and psychological acuity, Nesser returns to Maardam in a novel where every action has consequences—and where the truth may come at a high price
