A new Wisting investigation is always something to look forward to. Admittedly, The Lake has been sitting around on the TBR for a few weeks, so I decided it was high time I took myself off to Larvik to see what Wisting and Nils Hammer were up to this time. π
The lake of the title is Lake Farris, whose water level has dropped significantly during a very hot summer. A metal detectorist, searching along the lake bed near his summer cabin, finds a gold initial necklace that he recognises as belonging to a teenaged girl who went missing in Sweden four years previously. π
In another section of the dried up lake bed, a motorcycle is found, along with its rider, a youth who went missing eight years previously. π
What follows are two intense investigations by Wisting and his team, as they try to piece together what befell the young man, and whether or not the missing girl's remains are buried in the vicinity of the lake. π
As with all of the Wisting books, this is a slow burn, but it's worth it. There are the inevitable twists and red herrings, not to mention the final reveal in the investigation into the missing girl. π
