Someone wanted to kill the boys from Skavböke. That's what they said in the area, afterwards.
The 1990s are coming to an end and a group of boys are about to take the step into adulthood. But then something happens, and one of them decides to leave the village, another is found beaten to death and soon another loses his life. The police who try to understand how everything is connected keep returning to two names: Sander Eriksson and Killian Persson.
One hot July day more than twenty years later, another murder takes place and once again it has become dangerous out there in Skavböke. The gate between the living and the dead has been opened.
Living and Dead is a novel about breakup, guilt and grace. It is the third part in Christoffer Carlsson's suite of crime novels from Halland.
