Green-Eyed Monster

Winner of the Sølvkniven Prize and nominated for the Riverton Award!

A psychological thriller firmly rooted in the local community of Vestfold.

Myriam H. Bjerkli’s new novel is a standalone story, but the characters will be familiar to readers of Engelens fall. Vibeke and Christian are now married. Everything appears fine—until Vibeke begins receiving strange letters. Someone is trying to warn her, claiming that Christian killed his previous wife.

Her car is vandalized with the word WHORE!!! scrawled across the side. At the same time, she starts feeling unwell—nauseous, dizzy, increasingly weak. A visit to the doctor confirms a shocking diagnosis: lead poisoning.

Is someone really trying to kill her?
Could the anonymous letter writer be telling the truth?
Is Christian, the man she married, in fact a ruthless murderer?
