Everything Is Mine (2021)
(Clara, book 1)
Ruth Lillegraven
"A refreshingly different kind of thriller. The story is riveting, the plot artful, with constant twists and surprises and a serious underlying theme. I devoured the book in two evenings, but the characters are still with me…"
The Bell in the Lake (2020)
(Sister Bells Trilogy, book 1)
Lars Mytting
"Love, suspense, nature and superstition are woven together in this powerful novel."
