THE SUN, rising.
"THE SUN, rising", first book of the upcoming trilogy THE SUN, is an atmospheric, emotionally charged young adult novel set in the stifling, contrasting landscape of a Swedish summer — where white nights conceal dark secrets.
Selma Norheim arrives in Oxelösund — a seemingly sleepy coastal town that has carried the echo of tragedy for some time. When she meets Niklas Bergström — a boy from the marina who doesn't say much, but looks as though he knows everything — she slowly plunges into a story that was never fully told. Nothing was supposed to happen between them... and yet, everything did.
And in the middle of it all — Elias Olsson. Brash, direct, with a past that begins to entwine with Selma's. A triangle of tension, unsaid words, and desire sets off an avalanche of events, and every character — even the most silent one — turns out to have something to hide. Someone lied. Someone disappeared. And someone...
This is a story about a love that doesn't come easily. About the boundaries of loyalty. About guilt that isn't always obvious. And about the fact that sometimes you have to get completely lost to find your way back — to one another.
There will be only one choice. But first, everything must fall apart.
