500 "Originally published in France in 2012 under the title Le
dernier Lapon by Editions Metailie" -- Title page verso.
520 "The international award-winning, bestselling phenomenon,
now available in English for the first time. Tomorrow, the
sun will rise for the first time in 40 days. Thirty
minutes of daylight will herald the end of the polar night
in Kautokeino, a small village in northern Norway, home to
the indigenous Sami people. But in the last hours of
darkness, a precious artifact is stolen : an ancient Sami
drum. The most important piece in the museum's collection,
it was due to go on tour with a UN exhibition in a few
short weeks. Hours later, a man is murdered. Mattis, one
of the last Sami reindeer herders, is found dead in his
gumpy. Are the two crimes connected? In a town fraught
with tension--between the indigenous Samis fighting to
keep their culture alive, the ultra-Lutheran Scandinavian
colonists concerned with propagating their own religion,
and the greedy geologists eager to mine the region's ore
deposits--it falls to two local police officers to solve
the crimes. Klemet Nango, an experienced Sami officer, and
Nina Nansen, his much younger partner from the south of
Norway, must find the perpetrators before it's too late...
