UTAN DIG – WITHOUT YOU
By Lina Areklew
THE AUTUMN DARKNESS has descended over Örnsköldsvik. A group of teenagers has gathered at a campfire by the sea to party. At midnight, one of the teenagers is found bloody and unconscious in a nearby stream.
POLICE TRAINEE FREDRIK Fröding is first on the scene and is faced with drunk and shocked youths, all claiming to be innocent of the brutal assault.
INVESTIGATOR SOFIA HJORTÉN is drawn into a case where families protect their own, and where she must learn to understand the secret world of the youths.
WITHOUT YOU IS the fourth part in Lina Areklew’s beloved High Coast series about murder and dark secrets in the archipelago of Örnsköldsvik. An engaging crime novel about the betrayal of adults and the vulnerability of teenagers.
