What to expect

Bloomsbury presents I Will Miss You Tomorrow by Heine Bakkeid, read by Colin Mace.

Bakkeid has entered the upper echelons of Norwegian crime writing’ Barry Forshaw

The first in a new Norwegian crime series by the winner of the Riverton Prize 2021 introducing disgraced ex-Chief Inspector Thorkild Aske, a damaged man with a complicated past

Fresh out of prison and a stint in a psychiatric hospital, disgraced ex-policeman Thorkild Aske only wants to lose himself in drugged dreams of his beloved Frei. Wild, unknowable Frei. The woman he loved. The woman he has lost forever.


Yet when Frei’s young cousin goes missing off the Norwegian coast and Thorkild is called in by the family to help find him, dead or alive, Thorkild cannot refuse. He owes them this.


Tormented by his past, Thorkild soon finds himself deep in treacherous waters. He’s lost his reputation – will he now lose his life?

The second Thorkild Aske mystery, Scatter Her Ashes, is out now

Critics Review

A gripping, atmospheric novel and a first outing for Aske. More are promised – I can't wait
Saga
Wonderfully creepy … This is a spectacular debut
Daily Mail
I Will Miss You Tomorrow is a psychological drama and a noirish chiller with plenty of atmosphere and a setting that is bleak, empty, cold and unforgiving and perfect for the story… A powerful and exhilarating novel
NB
The Gothic elements in I Will Miss You Tomorrow are splendidly integrated into the crime plot, along with a strand of dark sardonic humour. It’s a novel that is as much about loss and guilt as it is about the solving of a crime. At a stroke, Bakkeid has entered the upper echelons of Norwegian crime writing.
Norwegian Arts
It’s the blend of classic crime plot, unexpected horror and wittily told scenes that makes the book extraordinary. Stephen King has got himself a Norwegian crime heir
Ekstra Bladet, Italy
A star has been born
Thriller Nord, Italy
A thrilling story set in the harsh milieus of northern Norway
Dagens Nyheter, Sweden
A truly great crime novel that far exceeds expectations
Femina, Denmark
An extraordinary debut
Sondag, Denmark
Accomplished and well-executed crime plotline ... There is something rare and tender about it ... It’s a book about loss, love, shame, guilt and greed. And it’s a great one
Vildmedkrim, Denmark
Riveting… The dialogue between Aske and his former boss in particular sparkles
BOK, Norway
