Bøger af Marie Vingtras

The blizzard is wreaking havoc in Alaska. In the heart of the storm, a child disappears. It only took seconds, the time to retie her shoelaces, for Bess to let go of the boy's hand and he's out of sight. She goes out looking for him, closely followed by the few inhabitants of this end of the world. Then begins a frantic race against death, where the fate of each one is revealed in the face of the elements. With this look into the heart of nature, Marie Vingtras focuses on the intimacy of her characters and delicately reveals the torments of their souls.

In a harsh, Alaskan landscape, four solitary characters are brought together by a desperate hunt to find a missing child. Winner of Prix Des Libraires, the French Booksellers' Prize for Best Novel of the Year.
