The Lord of Herrings
A CHEEKY ARCTIC ADVENTURE NOVEL BY THE NORDIC AUTHOR
When once abundant Lake Pihtamo mysteriously begins to lose its fish population, three fishing rivals are forced to team up and find answers: Sven, the young contender; Jaaku, an Inuit of heritage; and Viljo, the current champion whose brother disappeared on the same fateful night as did Roar, Sven’s father.
Sven’s fiancée, Ida, and his mother, Birgget, will stay at home and wait for the men to return. On this occasion, though, the women are taken to a survival adventure of its own, parallel to the men’s on the outer lake. A series of catastrophic events will keep the men and women apart, while revealing them a colourful Arctic world no one knew existed.
The life of an ice fisher will never be the same again...
