Last year I read the debut thriller by Alex Dahl, The Boy at the Door, and though it was pretty good! The author has a unique story telling style and really captures the darkness of Scandinavian thrillers.
Now this summer Dahl is back with another new thriller and I am ecstatic to share all the details with you guys and I also have a giveaway up on my Instagram this week so be sure to get our entries in for this book as you don’t want to miss it!
This book promises the same dark and psychological twists that this author is known for plus some intense emotions and very thought provoking. It’s out now so be sure to add it to your TBR list as it sounds like a very promising read this summer!
Summary
Critically acclaimed author Alex Dahl explores how love can turn darkly sinister when a desperate mother looks to reconnect with her lost daughter in this riveting Norwegian set psychological suspense novel.
Two mothers. Two daughters. One heart.
When Alison’s beloved daughter Amalie drowns, her world turns impenetrably dark. Alison tries to hold it together throughout the bleak Fall, but in the darkest days of the Norwegian Winter she completely falls apart.
In another family, Amalie’s passing is a new beginning. After years of severe health problems, young Kaia receives a new heart on the morning after Amalie drowns. Her mother Iselin has struggled to raise Kaia on her own and now things are finally looking up. She’s even made an affluent new friend who’s taken a special interest in her and her daughter.
Alison knows she shouldn’t interfere, but really, she’s just trying to help Iselin and Kaia. She can give them the life they never had, and by staying close to them, she can still be with her daughter. Kaia is just like her, and surely, something of Amalie must live on in her. As her grief transforms into a terrifying obsession, Alison won’t let anything stop her from getting back what she has lost (summary from Goodreads).
