The Sound in November

by Yet Fry

A death ruled accidental. A truth buried in silence. On a remote Norwegian island, investigator Silje Thorvald-Berg is called to examine what should have been an open-and-shut case. A man has fallen to his death from the cliffs above the sea. The local ruling is clear: an accident. But the dead man’s sister isn’t convinced. And neither is Silje. What begins as a quiet inquiry soon fractures into something far more dangerous. Before his death, Anders Fleischer filed a confidential report through the island’s powerful fishing cooperative—the economic lifeline of Havøy. The report has vanished. And no one is willing to talk about why. As winter closes in, Silje and her partner, Anya—both in work and in life—find themselves drawn deeper into a web of silence and fear. Every question Silje asks tightens the circle around her. Every answer comes with a price. On Havøy, silence isn’t safety—it’s survival. And someone is willing to kill to keep it that way. A gripping and atmospheric Nordic noir mystery, perfect for readers of Ann Cleeves, Ragnar Jónasson, and Tana French. The Sound in November is a slow-burning Scandinavian crime thriller about isolation, silence, and the cost of uncovering the truth.
