Requirements: .ePUB reader, 0.4 Mb
Overview: It’s a cold and dark winter afternoon when a doctor knocks on Asbjørn Krag’s door. He’s worried about his patient, who has turned overnight from a cheerful, eccentric elderly gentleman into a shivering wreck. Clearly he’s terrified – but can a series of minor incidents at his country house really be the cause? And why won’t he tell anyone what he fears?
Krag must go undercover as a guest at an isolated Norwegian manor to try and prevent a murder in its snowy grounds, and to find the secret behind the three mysterious rooms.
Sven Elvestad, who also wrote under the pseudonym Stein Riverton, was one of Norway’s greatest crime writers. A Journalist by training, he was the first foreign journalist to interview Adolf Hitler and was famous for stunts such as spending a day in a circus lion’s cage. His first novel was published in 1907 and he went on to write nearly a hundred, many featuring detective Asbjørn Krag. Only a few of his works have ever been translated into English, despite enjoying widespread success across Europe. Norway’s yearly Riverton prize for the best crime novel is named after him.
This new translation of Through Three Rooms features an introduction by Nils Nordberg, radio drama producer and Norwegian authority on crime fiction.
