Jeg skal savne deg i morgen
by Heine Bakkeid
This book was out of print in Norwegian when I first decided I wanted to give this Norwegian debut author a go. I almost bought it in German instead but figured I'd just wait a little. Luckily for me the wait wasn't long and definitely worth it.
Thorkild Aske has just been released from prison. He has lost his status as a police investigator in the process. As a favor, he travels to northern Europe to look for a lost Danish man, Rasmus, presumed dead. Thorkild has enormous issues with the reason he ended up in prison. Another unreliable narrator, I thought, high on medication and alcohol. However, as a former police inspector, he is definitely a cut above the rest.
I am not a fan of anything paranormal, not even in fiction, but I thoroughly enjoyed Thorkild's battles with the ghosts of past and present, real and imagined. The atmosphere of the half-renovated light house, the unforgiving landscape of Northern Norway worked very well together. Definitely recommended.
I am not going to wait long to read the next installment, with the alluring title "Meet me in Paradise" ("Møt meg i Paradis").
