The Scandinavian War Bride

Discover the captivating historical fiction series by Désirée Ohrbeck

"Kirsten's heart is racing. An urge to run comes rushing in. The next moment, an elephant is standing on her chest, and she gasps for air. Her legs prickle and sting and her hands tremble, while a storm of sweat sweeps through her body. The heat is followed by icy cold. With her head full of bees, she looks at the bedroom, sees herself from the outside, before she is back in the room"

"Perhaps the best war songs are not about war, gunpowder and bullets at all, but about the mundanity of everyday life"

Available for preorder (Danish version)
