The City Between the Bridges - 1794: A Novel


A #1 international bestseller, this atmospheric and breathtaking sequel to the "cerebral, immersive page-turner" (The Washington Post) The Wolf and the Watchman explores the darkness hidden beneath the splendor of 18th-century Stockholm. Stockholm, 1794: A young nobleman, Eric Three Roses, languishes in a hospital as the rest of the city claims that he belongs in a madhouse. Riddled with guilt, he writes down the memories of his lost love--his beautiful wife who died on their wedding night. The young woman's mother also mourns her death and, desperate for justice, begs for help from the only person who will listen to her: Jean Mickel Cardell, the one-armed watchman. But she isn't the only person seeking him out. Emil, younger brother to the brilliant lawyer and detective Cecil Winge, finds the watchman to demand his late brother's pocket watch back. Instead, Cardell enlists Emil's help to discover what really happened at the Three Roses estate that dreaded wedding night. The City Between the Bridges: 1794 is a suspenseful race for the truth before it's too late from an author with a "thrilling, unnerving, clever, and beautiful" (Fredrik Backman, #1 New York Times bestselling author) voice.
