The living and the dead

Carlsson, Christoffer, 1986-2025
Books
On a cold, snowy winter's night in 1999, Sander and Killian leave a house party together, in a small town in rural Sweden. The very best of friends, they imagine they will remain so forever. The next morning, each is a key suspect in a murder. Each has something they want to conceal from the police. And from the other. The hunt for Mikael's Söderström's killer will take over twenty years. It will see a detective leave the force forever. And it won't end until a second body is found, and the tight-knit community's secrets are finally brought to light.
