On a gray September day, on an island off the coast of
Sweden, six -year -old Jens Davidsson ventured out of his
backyard, walked out into a fog, and vanished….Now twenty
years have passed, and in this magnificent debut novel of
suspense—a runaway bestseller in Sweden—the boy’s mother
returns to the place where her son disappeared, drawn by a
chilling package sent in the mail… In it, lovingly
wrapped, is one of Jens’ sandals—sandals Julia Davidsson
put on her son’s feet that very last morning.
Now,
with only a handful of clues, Julia and her father are
questioning islanders who were present the day Jens
vanished—and making a shocking connection to Öland’s most
notorious murder case: the killing spree of a wealthy
young man who fled the island and died years before Jens
was even born. Suddenly the island that once seemed so
achingly familiar turns strange and dangerous… Until Julia
finds herself facing truths she never imagined—about what
really happened on that September day twenty years ago,
about who may have crossed paths with little Jens in the
fog, and how a child could truly vanish without a trace…
until now.
