Herr Arnes Penningar / Liljecronas Hem / Körkarlen by Selma Lagerlöf

A trio of darkly atmospheric tales set in small coastal and rural communities, where sudden violence, buried treasure, and family secrets ripple across generations and summon both ordinary and supernatural justice; one story follows the devastating consequences of a brutal robbery that leaves a hoard of stolen gold and a trail of remorse and doomed love, another examines a household hollowed out by pride, loss and concealed sins, and the third presents a chilling moral fable in which a condemned life is forced to face the relentless carriage of Death and the possibility of atonement.
