Three Barrels of Barley

Lena, the mother of three small children, has inherited a farm near Grimstad on the southern coast of Norway. The property is worth a fortune, but an unsolved problem from the past overshadows it. Something is wrong, but she struggles to put her finger on what. The tooth of time has not yet gnawed away the pain that lies beneath the farm's grounds. Thus, Lena realizes that this old power is about to wake up again. An evil that extends to both her and those she loves.

In this novella, Tom Thowsen breathes new life into Terje Vigen, Henrik Ibsen's famous poem from 1861
