The Harbor

Más información sobre el libro

"It's a beautiful day in April when fifteen-year-old Oscar Dreyer-Hoff disappears. He never came home from school the previous afternoon and his family is frantic. The police assume he's a runaway--a typically overlooked middle child from a wealthy, prominent family, doing what teenagers do all over the world. But what runaway would leave his parents with these lines, typed on an unsigned piece of paper? 'He looked around and saw the knife that had stabbed Basil Hallward. He had cleaned it many times, till there was no stain left upon it. It was bright and glistened. As it had killed the painter, so it would kill the painter's work, and all that that meant. It would kill the past, and when that was dead, he would be free.' It's not much to go on, but it's all that detectives Jeppe Kørner and Anette Werner have. And with every passing hour, as the odds of finding a missing person grow dimmer, it will have to be enough." --Back cover.
