In the fifth book about Chief Inspector Eddie Feber, Karin Fossum lets the past strike back
At Store Gaupen farm, the late summer silence is broken by a violent roar from the sky. For farm owner Nancy Nesbit, the sound is an ominous echo of something far more threatening, of an event she experienced as a ten-year-old, when a white van stopped by the roadside and changed everything.
When she, in a magazine, reads about the unsolved disappearance of eight-year-old Sonia Sanningen in 1987, the memories come back in full force. The information she has may be what finally solves the case, or what tears up everything she has tried to bury.
Eddie Feber must dig into a 36-year-old mystery, where repressed memories, old clues and new threats are woven together. Come Home, Amadou is an intense crime novel about guilt, silence and about how one observation can change everything.
