* THE MULTI-AWARD WINNING BESTSELLER FOR FANS OF THE BRIDGE *
Winner of the Glass Key Award for Best Nordic Crime Novel Winner of
the Danish Debutant Award Winner of the Harald Mogensen Prize for
the best Danish crime novel A car is found on a deserted beach on
the Spanish island of Fuerteventura. On the back seat lies a
cardboard box containing the body of a small boy buried in
newspaper cuttings. No one knows his name, and there is no trace of
a driver. The last thing an ailing tourist resort needs is a
murder, and the police are desperate to close the case. The island
is rife with rumours about the reclusive Erhard. Two decades of
self-imposed exile from his wife and children have left him
alienated and alone, whiling away his days in a drunken haze,
driving an old taxi to get by. This unlikeliest of detectives
determines to solve the crime himself - and he has nothing to lose.
But how can one old man, cut off from the modern world, solve a
murder whose dangerous web of deceit stretches far beyond the small
island? And what if the killer forces Erhard to confront his own
long-buried past? Winner of the prestigious Glass Key Award and an
instant bestseller in Denmark, The Hermit is taking the
international publishing world by storm. Acutely observed and
psychologically penetrating, this is existential noir at its
finest.
