Harbour

On a winter trip home to the island of Domar-, Anders and Cecilia take their six-year-old daughter Maja across the ice to visit the lighthouse at Gåvasten.And Maja disappears. Leaving not even a footprint in the snow.Two years later, alone and more or less permanently drunk, Anders returns to Domar- to confront his despair. He slowly realises that Majas disappearance is not the first inexplicable tragedy to strike the islanders. Nor is everyone telling him all they know; even his own mother, it seems, is keeping secrets. And what is it about the sea? Theres something very bad happening on Domar-. Something that involves the sea itself.As he did with Let the Right One In and Handling the Undead, John Ajvide Lindqvist serves up a masterful cocktail of suspense laced with bizarre humour and a narrative that barely pauses for breath. Harbour is also a heartbreaking study of loss and guilt and a novel whose epic climax pits the infinite force of nature against the implacable love of a father for his child.
