Unseen Disappearance: A Person Disappears During Journey from Norway to Denmark
In the world of Norwegian literature, Jorn Lier Horst and Thomas Enger have made a name for themselves with their humanistic and politically-charged fiction. The duo has recently collaborated on a new thriller, "Faux-semblant", published on August 14.
"Faux-semblant", translated by Marie-Caroline Aubert, is a 420-page suspense thriller that will cost readers 21 €. Aubert, known for her translations of numerous crime novels, has brought Horst and Enger's latest work to English-speaking audiences.
The story follows Inspector Alex Blix and his journalist friend Emma Ramm as they delve into the mystery of a child found and exchanged. The investigation takes them on a journey between Norway and Denmark, as they work to unravel the truth behind the case.
As the investigation unfolds, Blix encounters a woman among the critically injured who should not be there. The duo's trademark unexpected twist comes into play, as morality takes a hit in this gripping tale.
Horst and Enger, both known for their crime novels, have crafted a compelling narrative that promises to keep readers on the edge of their seats. The suspense is cleverly woven, ensuring no time to get bored.
"Faux-semblant" is published by Gallimard-Série Noire, a renowned publisher that specialises in crime fiction. The book delves into a revisiting of a kidnapping that occurred a decade ago, and an investigation into a devastating explosion in Oslo on New Year's Eve, initially suspected to be a terrorist attack.
For those seeking a deeper understanding of the plot, official bookstores and publisher descriptions offer more detailed information. However, for now, readers can look forward to this exciting new collaboration between two of Norway's most celebrated crime authors.
