It is October 1914, and Swedish naval officer Lars Tobiasson-Svartman is charged with a secret mission to take depth readings around the Stockholm archipelago. In the course of his work, he lands on the rocky isle of Halsskär. It seems impossible for it to be habitable, yet it is home to the young widow Sara Fredrika, who lives in near-total isolation and is unaware that the world is at war. A man of control and precision, Tobiasson-Svartman is overwhelmed by his attraction to the half-wild, illiterate Sara Fredrika, a total contrast to his reserved, elegant wife. Soon he enacts the worst of his impulses, turning into another, far more dangerous man, ready to trade in lies and even death to get closer to the lonely woman without losing hold of his wife. Matters of shame, fidelity, and duty are swept to sea as he struggles to maintain his parallel lives, with devastating consequences for the women who love him. Henning Mankell, author of the internationally bestselling Kurt Wallander series and the critically acclaimed Chronicler of the Winds, once again proves himself a master of the novel with Depths, an arresting, disquieting story of obsession contents -- part i The Secret Affinity with Leads -- chapter 1 -- chapter 2 -- chapter 3 -- chapter 4 -- chapter 5 -- chapter 6 -- chapter 7 -- chapter 8 -- chapter 9 -- chapter 10 -- chapter 11 -- chapter 12 -- chapter 13 -- chapter 14 -- chapter 15 -- chapter 16 -- chapter 17 -- chapter 18 -- chapter 19 -- chapter 20 -- chapter 21 -- chapter 22 -- chapter 23 -- chapter 24 -- part ii The Navigable Channel -- chapter 25 -- chapter 26 -- chapter 27 -- chapter 28 -- chapter 29 -- chapter 30 -- chapter 31 -- chapter 32 -- chapter 33 -- chapter 34 -- chapter 35 -- chapter 36 -- chapter 37 -- chapter 38 -- chapter 39 -- part iii Fog -- chapter 40 -- chapter 41 -- chapter 42 -- chapter 43 -- chapter 44 -- chapter 45 -- chapter 46 -- chapter 47 -- chapter 48 -- chapter 49 -- chapter 50 -- chapter 51 -- chapter 52 -- chapter 53 -- chapter 54 -- chapter 55 -- chapter 56 -- chapter 57 -- part iv Autumn, Winter, Loneliness -- chapter 58 -- chapter 59 -- chapter 60 -- chapter 61 -- chapter 62 -- chapter 63 -- chapter 64 -- chapter 65 -- chapter 66 -- chapter 67 -- chapter 68 -- part v The Dead Eyes of China Figurines -- chapter 69 -- chapter 70 -- chapter 71 -- chapter 72 -- chapter 73 -- chapter 74 -- chapter 75 -- chapter 76 -- chapter 77 -- chapter 78 -- chapter 79 -- chapter 80 -- chapter 81 -- chapter 82 -- chapter 83 -- chapter 84 -- chapter 85 -- chapter 86 -- chapter 87 -- chapter 88 -- chapter 89 -- chapter 90 -- chapter 91 -- chapter 92 -- part vi The Adder Game -- chapter 93 -- chapter 94 -- chapter 95 -- chapter 96 -- chapter 97 -- chapter 98 -- chapter 99 -- chapter 100 -- chapter 101 -- chapter 102 -- chapter 103 -- chapter 104 -- chapter 105 -- chapter 106 -- chapter 107 -- chapter 108 -- chapter 109 -- part vii Capture -- chapter 110 -- chapter 111 -- chapter 112 -- chapter 113 -- chapter 114 -- chapter 115 -- chapter 116 -- chapter 117 chapter 118 -- chapter 119 -- chapter 120 -- chapter 121 -- chapter 122 -- chapter 123 -- chapter 124 -- chapter 125 -- chapter 126 -- chapter 127 -- chapter 128 -- chapter 129 -- chapter 130 -- chapter 131 -- chapter 132 -- chapter 133 -- chapter 134 -- part viii Measuring Lighthouse Beams -- chapter 135 -- chapter 136 -- chapter 137 -- chapter 138 -- chapter 139 -- chapter 140 -- chapter 141 -- chapter 142 -- chapter 143 -- chapter 144 -- chapter 145 -- chapter 146 -- chapter 147 -- chapter 148 -- chapter 149 -- chapter 150 -- chapter 151 -- chapter 152 -- chapter 153 -- chapter 154 -- chapter 155 -- chapter 156 -- chapter 157 -- chapter 158 -- chapter 159 -- part ix The Imprint of the German Deserter -- chapter 160 -- chapter 161 -- chapter 162 -- chapter 163 -- chapter 164 -- chapter 165 -- chapter 166 -- chapter 167 -- chapter 168 -- chapter 169 -- chapter 170 -- chapter 171 -- chapter 172 -- chapter 173 -- chapter 174 -- chapter 175 -- chapter 176 -- chapter 177 -- chapter 178 -- chapter 179 -- chapter 180 -- chapter 181 -- chapter 182 -- chapter 183 -- chapter 184 -- chapter 185 -- part x Angelâs Message -- chapter 186 -- chapter 187 -- chapter 188 -- chapter 189 -- chapter 190 -- chapter 191 -- chapter 192 -- chapter 193 -- chapter 194 -- chapter 195 -- chapter 196 -- chapter 197 -- chapter 198 -- chapter 199 -- chapter 200 -- chapter 201 -- chapter 202 -- chapter 203 -- chapter 204 -- chapter 205 -- chapter 206
