The first edition is released exclusively with a beautiful colored edge. Nine-year-old Maja grows up in a fractured family - a tyrannical father, a loving but suppressed mother, surrounded by silence and things no one explains to her. When Frank, Maja's father, kills her mother, he tears a hole in the world - for Maja, but also for everyone else left behind. In an instant, nothing is as it was: Amidst grief, custody battles, and bureaucracy, Maja becomes a pawn and loses her family, her home, her sense of security, and the certainty of where she belongs amidst applications and responsibilities. Her godmother Liv becomes Maja's only ray of hope: Liv works as an astrophysicist and inspires Maja with the wonders of the universe. At the same time, she struggles with her own insecurities, old fears, and the overwhelming burden of suddenly having to take on responsibility. Yet, Liv and Maja grow closer together: through the telescope and in their quest to find answers in the endless universe that no one else can provide. A novel about the echo of violence, about structural failure - and how a community falters when a femicide shakes everything. Told from multiple perspectives, it unfolds the panorama of a family in a state of emergency and a society that still avoids confronting the structural core of violence.
