Sinopsis

The story's protagonist, Lexy Moran, gets to know Caroline Enderby as she is a young lady with a flawless reputation. Her mother watches her like a hawk to guide her inappropriate suitors and protect her from scandals or compromising situations of any sort. The shock comes when Caroline doesn't come home one night. What is more strange to Lexy is that her mother doesn't seem worried about the situation, although it looks like Caroline escaped with an admirer. But how was it possible for a shy girl living in tight discipline to find a man or arrange a marriage? Who is the strange guy coming the next day searching for Caroline, and why is her mother so calm upon the situation? These are the matters for Lexy to investigate.

    October, 1914. Swedish naval officer Lars Tobiasson-Svartman is charged with a secret mission to take depth readings around the Stockholm archipelago. In the course of his work, he lands on the rocky isle of Halsskär. It seems utterly inhabitable, yet Halsskär is home to the young widow Sara Fredrika. Lars soon learns that Sara, living in near-total isolation, is unaware that the world is at war. 
     
     
      
    A man of control and precision, Lars is overwhelmed by his attraction to the half-wild, illiterate Sara, a total contrast to his reserved, elegant wife. Giving in to the worst of his impulses, Lars turns into a far more dangerous man—one ready to trade in lies and even death to get closer to the lonely woman without losing hold of his wife. All thoughts of shame, fidelity, and duty are swept to sea as he struggles to maintain his parallel lives, with devastating consequences for the women who love him. 
     
     
      
    Henning Mankell, author of the internationally bestselling Kurt Wallander Mysteries and the critically acclaimed Chronicler of the Winds, once again proves himself a master of the novel with this arresting, disquieting story of obsession.

    Inside Half Moon Bay, a sparkling California coastal town, Ester Prynn is dulled and diminished by struggles with work, money, marriage, her senile father, a troubled teenage son, and old guilt she can't assuage. When a masked gunman robs the convenience store where Ester works, he upends her fraught life and propels her toward passions buried, like singing; desires discovered, like a same-sex infatuation; and wrongs righted, like bringing the violent assailant to justice. But as the armed robber commits new crimes and continues to evade capture, the trauma from the holdup climbs, threatening Ester's newfound delights and longings and forcing her to contend with her burning regrets and what-ifs. In the reckoning between Ester and these growing, molten upsets, she's faced with enormous choices and must determine what and who can bring her to her best life.
