Halland is shot whilst his wife, Bess is asleep. This is the story from her perspective of the aftermath, the people she encounters, the odd things she discovers and it has a strange dream like quality. It probably won’t linger with me, but I certainly enjoyed it as a quick read. It is set in Denmark, but for me it didn’t necessarily conjure up the feel of the country as other books can do.
