Autumn 1940. In the north of occupied Norway, near the town of Bodø, the passenger ship Princess Ranghild sinks. Among the hundreds who drown is shipowner Thor Falk. But his wife, Vera Linn, and newborn son, Olav, survive. 75 years later, Vera commits suicide, a tragedy clearly connected to that long-ago shipwreck. Half a century ago, Vera's brilliant writing career was cut short when she attempted to tell the truth about that fateful day, and now Olav's daughter, Sasha, begins to unravel her grandmother's story. "The Sea Cemetery" is a truly great Norwegian novel about a family dynasty, the struggle for power and wealth, loyalty to the state in the light of morality, love, and betrayal. This is a romantic yet tragic journey along the Norwegian coast, past and present, a story in which truth clashes with family loyalty and may even destroy a family empire. The novel has been translated into 17 languages and was nominated for the GRAND PRIX by ELLE magazine in France.
