'One of the best Nordic Noir writers' - GuardianA trip behind the Iron Curtain would change their lives forever . . . It begins in 1969. Six young people arrive in Uppsala, Sweden. Different circumstances push the three young couples together and, over the course of a few years, they become friends. But a summer trip through Eastern Europe changes everything, and when their time at Uppsala University is over it also signals the end of something else. Years later, a lecturer at Lund University is found dead at the bottom of a cliff in the woods close to Kymlinge. And chillingly, it is the very same spot where one of the Uppsala students died thirty-five years before. Detective Inspector Gunnar Barbarotti takes on this ominous case of history repeating itself, and is forced to confront an increasingly grave reality. The Lonely Ones is the fourth novel of Håkan Nesser's quintet about Inspector Gunnar Barbarotti. No library descriptions found. |

Eine unbeschwerte Sommerreise in den siebziger Jahren. So fängt alles an. Drei Paare aus Uppsala, miteinander befreundet und jung, planen eine Busreise von Schweden durch die Ostblockländer bis ans Schwarze Meer. Aber was so lustig beginnt, endet im Desaster. Die Wege der Sechs trennen sich nach diesem Urlaub – und kreuzen sich ein Menschenalter später erneut, als ein Dozent aus Lunda in den Wäldern vor Kymlinge am Fuße eines Steilhangs tot aufgefunden wird. Genau an derselben Stelle, an der eine junge Studentin aus Uppsala vor fünfunddreißig Jahren unter mysteriösen Umständen ums Leben kam ...
Ein schwieriger Fall für Inspektor Barbarotti, in dessen Verlauf sein Pakt mit Gott und sein moralisches Empfinden auf eine harte Probe gestellt werden.
