Åtte uker til jul
This is the first book in a new series - planned as a series of at least four. A feelgoody novel - not crime - which takes place just before and at Christmas - with lots of humour, charm, love, conflicts - at a lovely island in the south of Norway.
"Petra Pettersen works in a book store. She is married to Einar, fisherman at Hvasser, and has two grown daughters. Its a safe and predictable life, but she is bored. Petra have a dream. She wants to work «with art", but dont know what exactly. Suddenly she experiences a Eureka moment. That occurs just after she baked her traditonal christmas-cake, and just before Einar begins to exercise, but is purely coincidential. Just when Petra thinks she lives under a black cloud, she suddenly see hope. But the plan is not perfect. After all: is the hunky lawyer as good as he seems? Is it wise to participate at a cookery course and dismantle wild boars just before christmas? And what does she really know about her daughters' life? A meeting in a wine cellar might just solve Petras complicated plan. Or maybe not? Perhaps it is aunt Bertha's wonderful Christmas cake that changes everything?"
