THE TOOTH FAIRY

TANDFEEN – THE TOOTH FAIRY

By Katrine Engberg

“This novel is based on a rumour I once heard…”

BIRGER, A RETIRED sound engineer, has fallen in love with Paulina, the Latvian sex worker he meets every Wednesday. When she suddenly disappears without a trace, he is left devastated and unsure where to turn. Then Marie – an outspoken Instagram therapist – confronts him with an uncomfortable truth: the police are unlikely to lift a finger for a woman like Paulina. If Birger doesn’t go looking for her, who will?

TOGETHER, BIRGER AND Marie follow a trail that leads to a secluded summer house on the Danish coast, where Paulina was hired to work on the night she vanished. The host was celebrated actor Anton Kehlet, entertaining four wealthy, influential friends. According to the men, it was nothing more than an evening of drinks and harmless fun with a few women.

BUT DISTURBING RUMOURS surround the five men, and it soon becomes clear that they know far more than they are willing to admit.

AS BIRGER AND Marie dig deeper, determined to uncover the truth, strange and increasingly threatening events begin to unfold around them. Before long, they find themselves drawn into dangerous waters, confronting a world where power, privilege and loyalty can bury even the darkest crimes.

THE TOOTH FAIRY is a gripping thriller about violence, rumours, powerful men, and the silence that protects them.
