"Lars Mytting writes with an insight, empathy and integrity few others can match" JO NESBO The Reindeer Hunters is the second in a thrilling historical trilogy that began with The Bell in the Lake. The year is 1903, and twenty-two years have passed since Astrid Hekne died in childbirth. Her son Jehans lives on a modest smallholding up in the hills near Butangen, having withdrawn from his community. He is drawn to freedom, to fishing and reindeer hunting, and one day meets a stranger over the body of a huge reindeer buck. Outside the new church in Butangen, Pastor Kai Schweigaard still cares for Astrid Hekne's grave. The village's overworked priest is tormented by his old betrayal, which led to death and to the separation of two powerful church bells cast in memory of two sisters in Astrid's family. Kai is set on finding an ancient tapestry made by the sisters - the Hekne Weave - in the hope that it will reveal how he can remedy his iniquities. Conceived on an epic scale by Norway's bestselling author, The Reindeer Hunters is a novel about love and bitter rivalries, sorrow and courage, about history and myth, and a country as it enters a new era, about the first electric light and the Great War in Europe, where brother stands against brother.

The first novel in a thrilling Norwegian historical trilogy - by the author of The Sixteen Trees of the Somme

»Eigentlich erzählt dieses Buch nicht von Autos, sondern vom Sinn des Lebens und der Liebe.« Dagens Naeringsliv In Erik Fyksens Tankstelle gibt es kein Bistro und auch keine gigantische Waschanlage wie bei der Konkurrenz und das Sechziger-Jahre-Design, in dem Eriks Freundin die Tankstelle stilecht renoviert hat, bevor sie ihn verließ, ist auch nicht jedermanns Sache. Dafür weiß Erik alles über Autos, die er mit Hingabe repariert, und kann noch für das ungewöhnlichste Modell Ersatzteile besorgen, und sei es beim örtlichen Schrottplatzbesitzer. Für Tüftler und Bastler ist der Ort zur »Tankstelle des Glücks« geworden, in dem nicht nur der fahrbare Untersatz auf Touren gebracht wird, sondern gleich das ganze Leben verhandelt wird. Nur schade, dass die Landstraße begradigt werden soll und dann nicht mehr an der Tankstelle vorbeiführen wird. Erik muss eine Entscheidung treffen. Ein Männerverstehbuch, das in Norwegen zum Kultroman wurde.

Because our relationship to fire is so ancient, so universal, it seems that in learning about wood, you can also learn about life.

A family story of epic scale, by the author of NORWEGIAN WOOD and THE BELL IN THE LAKE. "An intricate story about war, family, secrets and,yes, wood ... An engaging, satisfying read" The Times "So cleverly plotted, and it builds up such effortless dramatic momentum as it zeroes in on its conclusion" Scotsman Edvard grows up on a remote mountain farmstead in Norway with his taciturn grandfather, Sverre. The death of his parents, when he was three years old, has always been shrouded in mystery - he has never been told how or where it took place and has only a distant memory of his mother. But he knows that the fate of his grandfather's brother, Einar, is somehow bound up with this mystery. One day a coffin is delivered for his grandfather long before his death - a meticulous, beautiful piece of craftsmanship. Perhaps Einar is not dead after all. Edvard's desperate quest to unlock the family's tragic secrets takes him on a long journey - from Norway to the Shetlands, and to the battlefields of France - to the discovery of a very unusual inheritance. The Sixteen Trees of the Somme is about the love of wood and finding your own self, a beautifully intricate and moving tale that spans an entire century. A TIMES BESTSELLER Mytting's book is as much a romantic historical thriller as it is a book of promise, a page-turner as it is a reflective journey into selfhood, history, life's meaning and individual moral responsibility - Mika Provata-Carlone, Bookanista Translated from the Norwegian by Paul Russell Garrett
