The Living and the DeadThe Living and the Dead

On a snowy winter night in 1999, Sander and Killian leave a house party together outside a small town in rural Sweden. The very best of friends, the two seventeen-year-olds imagine they will remain so forever. But by the next morning, a corpse is found in the trunk of a car, and each boy is a suspect in the murder. Each has something they want to conceal from the police. And from the other. The hunt for the killer will take more than twenty years. It will see the lead detective leave the force forever. And it won't end until a second body turns up in similar circumstances, and the tight-knit community's secrets are finally brought to light.
