Winter Crow

With Vinterkråke Karin Kinge Lindboe concludes her thrilling trilogy featuring Syr, Korir and Vann. The three are, each in his or her own way, the principal characters in this dramatic account of the tribespeople who live in and off the forest. Syr is back with her own people after setting out with her father to find some unknown members of their family. Their meeting with them, and especially with Vann, who is mute, has made an indelible impression on her. Syr finds dead crows hanging outside her tent. She takes it as an ill omen, which indeed it is. Her search for whatever it is that threatens them forms a leit-motif of the book. Concurrently, the emotional ties between Syr, Korir and Vann grow ever stronger.
