In a large Swedish forest, Beartown hides a dark secret. Cut off from the outside world, it experiences a kind of isolation that tears people apart. Every year, more and more of the town is swallowed by the forest. Then, a bright new future is offered to the town, but everything hangs in the balance due to a single, brutal act. This divides the town into those who believe it should be silenced and forgotten, and those who are willing to risk the future to seek justice. Who will speak up? Could you simply watch and remain silent? Or would you risk everything for justice? Which side would you be on? "I believed in the residents of Beartown and felt torn by the events in the book." - Jojo Moyes, bestselling author of "Me Before You." "Surrounded by impenetrable forests, Beartown recreates the stifling atmosphere of a dying community. A mature, compassionate book." - Sunday Times.
