The matriarch of a wealthy Norwegian dynasty commits suicide on the
family estate. Her unpublished memoirs about the family's trauma -
a wartime ship disaster that killed her husband and hundreds of
others - are missing. Her granddaughter embarks on a journey to
find the manuscript. Aided by a discredited secret agent with his
motives, they wind up the family's labyrinthian past - a dark and
dramatic story of secrets, betrayals, and doomed love. The Sea
Cemetery is a literary thriller, a sweeping family saga, and a
colourful drama about power and inheritance inspired by the great
tales from the 19th century as well as modern tv series. Distinctly
set in Norway, exploring universally human issues, the novel ends
in a fateful final voyage along the stunningly scenic Norwegian
coast. The quest to uncover the truth 75 years later converges in
the shipwreck on the bottom of the sea 300 meters below the surface
- where the shocking truth lies buried ...
