Even if you aren't familiar with the name John Ajvide Lindqvist, you're definitely familiar with his work. In 2004, the Swedish author wrote Let The Right One In, and his latest book has recently been translated and released in the US. Titled Harbor, we've been provided with an exclusive 19-page excerpt to share with our readers:

"One ordinary winter afternoon on a snowy island, Anders and Cecilia take their six-year-old daughter Maja across the ice to visit the lighthouse in the middle of the frozen channel. While the couple explore the lighthouse, Maja disappears -- either into thin air or under thin ice -- leaving not even a footprint in the snow. Two years later, alone and more or less permanently drunk, Anders returns to the island to regroup. He slowly realizes that people are not telling him all they know; even his own mother, it seems, is keeping secrets. What is happening in Domaro, and what power does the sea have over the town's inhabitants?"
