Description: "It is 1912 at a provincial Danish seaside hotel. Twelve-year-old Malte, a charity case from the city, revels in the freedom of summer, even as he weathers the dramas in his small world: condescending or friendly adults, a pregnant hotel maid, and a runaway rogue."--BOOK JACKET.

"One day, Malte discovers a coffin that has drifted ashore. No one claims the handsome young sailor inside. But the ancient crone living all alone in the amber castle seems to be hiding something. Soon Malte is absorbed in the sailors tragic love story and dramatic death, and their fates become dangerously intertwined."--BOOK JACKET.
