Harbor

A day trip turns into a nightmare for two parents when their young daughter vanishes, in this horror thriller by the author of Let the Right One In.

"Establishes him as Sweden's Stephen King." ―The Washington Post

John Ajvie Lindqvist is a stunning supernova in the world of horror fiction. His first novel, the international sensation Let the Right One In, has been made into critically acclaimed films in both Sweden and the United States (as Let Me In), and his second book, Handling the Undead, is a favorite of horror lovers everywhere. Now, with Harbor, he firmly cements his place as the heir apparent to Stephen King.

One afternoon on a snowy island, Anders and Cecilia take their six-year-old daughter, Maja, across the ice to visit the lighthouse. Maja disappears, leaving not even a footprint in the snow. As Anders investigates, he unearths terrifying secrets in a blockbuster cocktail of high-tension suspense.

"John Ajvide Lindqvist is rightly seen as one of the most exciting writers working in the horror genre at the moment." ―The Scotsman (UK)

"The book's long, complex buildup to a particularly satisfying conclusion is shot through with the very best kind of horror—subtle, persistent, finally front-and-center." —Booklist
