Ok, I've read a good 150 pages of so, but I have so many books ahead of it on my reading list that I am going to let this one go. I htink I'll send it out at work and see if it gets any responses here. Maybe it wil make its way back to me at some point, but if not, I'll pull through.

OK, it's ready for a new reader. Here's what I found online about it...
"Midsummer Eve, 1974, in the far north of Sweden, near the Norwegian border. Annie Raft arrives with her six-year-old daughter, Mia, in the remote village of Blackwater to join her lover, Dan, on a nearby commune. But Dan does not meet them. In the eerie light of the midsummer night, a frightened Annie wanders into the forest, where the myriad paths cross like veins in a body, to find the commune. A strange dark young man rushes by, without seeing her. By the rushing waters of the river, Annie comes upon a tent, and what she sees inside will haunt her for years to come -- until the morning Annie spies her daughter in the arms of the man from the forest, and a crime unsolved for nearly twenty years begins to roll toward a dark and devastating conclusion.
Psychologically complex and deeply sensual, Blackwater is a unique and unique and unforgettable thriller, in which the hearts and minds of the characters are as striking as the exotic northern landscape that envelops them."
Makes me want to take it back and read it this weekend. I'll lave it out for a day of two, and then re-claim it if no one bites.
