The eyes of death

Dødens glassøye

Two friends, Ann and Jonah, challenge each other; do they dare to go inside their dead neighbour’s empty house? Once inside, the friends find a hidden room and inside the room, a book full of names. For fun, they write their own names in the book, and they steal a pair of glass eyes. After a while, they discover that these eyes can see how people will die, and the names in the book are the names of dead people. The book belongs to none other than Death’s book keeper! And if Ann and Jonah can’t erase their names from the book – will it mean their days are numbered?
