After The Fire by Henning Mankell
On a windswept Swedish island, an aging, reclusive former surgeon watches his home go up in flames and suddenly becomes the prime suspect in the blaze. Forced into a cramped, makeshift existence, he confronts the wreckage of past choices, uneasy ties with an estranged daughter, and the wary scrutiny of a tight-knit community. As he searches for the fire’s cause and the courage to rebuild, he wrestles with loneliness, guilt, and the fragile possibility of late-in-life redemption.
