Description

Detective Sergeant Eigil Holst's holiday is disrupted by a gruesome discovery: a baby's body washed up on the banks of a lake. As the local magistrate orders the lake to be drained, another victim is found - a young woman, naked and weighted down with stones tied to her feet and neck. Her identity remains a mystery. Holst takes it upon himself to unravel the tangled threads of this case, tracing the woman's origins and motives for being in such a remote location. His investigation spans Scandinavia and central Europe, revealing a complex web of connections that threaten his own future. First published in 1903, The Forest Lake Mystery is considered one of the earliest Danish crime novels, offering a gripping tale of mystery and detection.
