    Da en lægelig fejl leder til den berømte skuespiller Ralph Meiers død, bliver celebritylægen Marc Schlosser nødt til at skjule fejlen for sine patienter og sin familie. Når alt kommer til alt, er et uplettet ry afgørende i hans branche. Men han kan ikke blive ved at skjule sandheden – hverken for sig selv eller for Lægetilsynet. Sagen er, at Marc ikke ligefrem er ulykkelig over Ralphs død. Da familien Schlosser tilbragte sommeren i Ralphs overdådige middelhavsvilla sammen med Ralph, hans kone Judith og filminstruktøren Stanley Forbes, blev Marcs ældste datter voldtaget. Gerningsmanden blev ikke afsløret, men Marc er overbevist om, at det enten var Ralph eller Stanley. Der samler sig hårdtslående beviser mod Marc, men sagen er endnu mere kompliceret, end den ser ud ved første øjekast. En medrivende roman om de valg, vi foretager os, og de konsekvenser, de får. Endnu en suspensefyldt og foruroligende roman af hollandske Herman Koch. Ligesom i hans mest kendte roman Middagen stiller Sommerhus med sommerhus spørgsmålet: Hvor langt vil du gå for dine nærmeste, og hvad skjuler der sig under andre menneskers facade. ”Ondskabsfuldt morsom, intens og foruroligende – det her er en ferie, du aldrig glemmer. ” – Daily Mail

    Fire personer. En middag. En uundgåelig beslutning. Paul Lohman og hans kone har aftalt at spise ude med Pauls bror og svigerinde, men det, der virker som en almindelig middagsaftale, udvikler sig snart til et anspændt drama. Ved et tilfælde har Paul nemlig opdaget sin teenagesøns chokerende hemmelighed – en hemmelighed der omfatter både vold, mord og begge de to familier. Men ikke kun Paul har en skjult dagsorden for middagen – alle ved tilsyneladende noget om sagen, og ret for ret oprulles nu flere nervepirrende afsløringer, indtil den rette sammenhæng står klar. Et foruroligende og medrivende portræt af en moderne familie, der bliver tvunget til at spørge sig selv, hvor langt man kan og bør gå for at beskytte sine børn. “Intelligent, chokerende og ikke til at lægge fra sig.” Gillian Flynn (Kvinden der forsvandt) ”Læseren vender sidste side i en tilstand, der nærmer sig chok.” – Jyllands-Posten

    'An absolute page-turner' Mail on SundayDear Mr. M,I'd like to start by telling you that I'm doing better now. I do so because you probably have no idea that I was ever doing worse. Much worse, in fact, but I'll get to that later on.Mr. M is being watched. As a famous writer, he is no stranger to the limelight, although interest in his work has been dwindling of late. His print runs are smaller than they used to be, as are the crowds at his bookshop signings . . . Our narrator clearly takes a keen interest in M.'s work, and indeed in every aspect of his life. But what exactly are his intentions? And to what does Mr. M owe the honour of his undivided attention?Our narrator seems to be no stranger to murder, while his own story appears to bear more than a passing resemblance to the plot of Mr. M's most famous novel: a teacher has an affair with a student, only to be brutally murdered by the girl and her teenage boyfriend. The body is never found.That's the problem with fiction: in real life, bodies have an awkward habit of turning up. Mr. M has used some artistic licence, and our narrator is not pleased, not pleased at all. And just before he fades into obscurity, he's prepared to give Mr. M one last review. And it's unlikely to be a rave.Dear Mr. M is an unsettling and irresistibly readable literary thriller, set in the world of writing and bookselling, by Herman Koch, the author of the international bestseller, The Dinner.
