Books by Heine Bakkeid
Heine Bakkeid's published works span crime fiction and historical storytelling. Below is an overview of his books, including the Thorkild Aske series and earlier standalone titles.
«Jeg skal savne deg i morgen»
The debut crime novel that introduced former interrogator Thorkild Aske. Set at a disused lighthouse in northern Norway, the story follows Aske as he is drawn into a missing-person case on the remote coast. The book was named one of the best books of 2016 by Stavanger Aftenblad and featured in BOK365's Easter crime-reading tips.
English title: I Will Miss You Tomorrow
Rights were sold to 12 territories, including Germany (Rowohlt), Italy (Giunti), Russia (AST), and Turkey (Beyaz Baykus).
«Møt meg i paradis»
The second instalment in the Thorkild Aske series. VG included Bakkeid in its spring 2018 crime-fiction guide of 10 notable books, highlighting this title among the season's most anticipated Norwegian crime releases.
English title: Meet Me in Paradise
«Dr. Schnabels Krønike»
Also known by its English title The Chronicles of Dr Schnabel von Rom, this book explores a darker, historically tinged narrative distinct from Bakkeid's crime series.
«Tjernet»
An earlier work by Bakkeid, released before the Thorkild Aske series. Tjernet predates his breakthrough into crime fiction and reflects a different facet of his writing.
