The Angel in Devil's Gorge
Engelen i djevelgapet
Astrid Baros is forced to accept that she can’t be a child forever. She’s forced to accept that she is growing and that things are changing. Plus, she has to accept that her parents are divorcing. No, actually, cross out that last part. THEY WILL NEVER DIVORCE!
Astrid makes a naughty but also rather nice plan to reunite Mum and Dad. Ever so astutely she tricks them into returning to Devil’s Gorge, the small Swedish island where they once camped back when they were a proper family. What she doesn’t know is that on the same island a group of inconsiderate hostage takers have brought their kidnapped victim – a millionaire heir.
Astrid places herself and her parents in a predicament so critical that only an angel can save them.
‘Top class action for children. At the bottom of this exciting and dramatic book lies the trauma that the divorce creates for Astrid. Most impressively, in addition to an imaginative, strong and action driven plot, is the description of the resourceful, sensitive and stubborn girl who invests everything in making her parents come together again.’
