«Skumtimmen» is the suspense novel by Johan Theorin, published by Wahlström & Widstrand in hardcover (396 pages, in Swedish).
One misty afternoon in the seventies, a child disappears without a trace in northern Öland. Twenty years later, his mother Julia returns to the island, called by her father, Captain Gerlof Davidsson, to resume the search. There she discovers the legend of Nils Kant, a man who terrorized the region and who, dead long ago, wanders in the twilight.
Skumtimmen is the first installment of the Öland series, set on the Swedish island of the same name.
Recommended for readers of crime fiction and Nordic suspense seeking an unsettling atmosphere and an unsolved mystery.
