About this audiobook
An ordinary outing takes Greta, Alex, and four-year-old Smilla across Sweden’s mythical Lake Malice to a tiny, isolated island. While father and daughter tramp into the trees, Greta stays behind in the boat, lulled into a reverie by the misty, moody lake…only later to discover that the two haven’t returned. Her frantic search proves futile. They’ve disappeared without a trace.
Greta struggles to understand their eerie vanishing. She desperately needs to call Alex, to be reassured that Smilla is safe, or contact the police. But now her cell phone is missing too. Back at her cottage, she finds it hidden away under the bedsheets. Had she done that? Or had someone else been in the cottage? But who, and why? As Greta struggles to put the pieces together, she fears that her past has come back to torment her, or she’s finally lost her grip on reality?
In this dark psychological thrill ride—with more twists than a labyrinth and more breathless moments than a roller coaster—Greta must confront what she’s always kept hidden if she has any hope of untangling the truth.
Caroline Eriksson
Caroline Eriksson’s first two novels drew on a pair of historical Swedish murder cases. Her debut novel, The Devil Helped Me, earned a nomination for Sweden’s 2015 Big Audiobook Prize. Holding a master’s degree in social psychology, Caroline worked for more than a decade in human-resource management before realizing her dream of becoming a full-time author. A true “citizen of the world,” Caroline has traveled widely and has lived everywhere from Quantico, Virginia, to Adelaide, Australia, to her current home in Stockholm. Since raising her two children is now her greatest life adventure, Caroline satisfies her love of experiencing new and exciting places by exploring the most terrifying realm of all: the shadowy corners of the human psyche. The Watcher is Caroline’s second psychological thriller and her second book translated into English. She’s currently hard at work on her next novel.
