Looks can be Deceiving
By Agnes Lovise Matre
An idyllic summer, dark secrets.
Description
One early Sunday morning, six-year-old Anders is seen walking along the main road in his pajama bottoms. It is the last time anyone sees him. Yet Anders is not reported missing until the following day, when it is his twelve-year-old sister, Ina, who calls the local sheriff’s office.
The disappearance of the young boy turns the small Hardanger village of Øystese upside down, forcing Sheriff Bengt Alvsaker to postpone his own holiday... the very week he was supposed to meet his son for the first time. As a massive search operation and police investigation unfold, the darker side of the village begins to emerge. Secrets are uncovered, and far too many people have reasons to keep them buried.
