From Monaco’s glittering coastlines to the frozen harbors of Montreal, from ancient Prague to the secretive halls of a castle in Avignon, The Swiss Masquerade and Other International Mysteries delivers seven exquisitely crafted stories of intrigue, love, and deception. In this elegant collection of literary mysteries, author Freya Lindvik weaves together a cosmopolitan tapestry of secrets and suspense—each tale unfolding in a richly drawn setting, each protagonist navigating the blurred lines between truth and illusion.
The Monaco Affair
Kristina Blanc, a widowed heiress from Prague, begins a new life among Monaco’s elite, only to discover that money and beauty cannot protect her from what lies beneath the Riviera’s polished surface.
The Bloody Ruby of Montreal
Henri Montaigne, a gem-cutter’s son with a past forged in shadows, arrives in a snow-laced Montreal carrying a briefcase bound by steel—and a secret that could cut deeper than the cold.
The Golden Prague
Two young women stumble into a digital dalliance that promises love and luxury, only to find that even in Prague’s golden glow, illusion comes with a price.
The Galactic Society
At a secret Christmas gathering in the Papal Palace of Avignon, an elite society of scientists and mystics convenes to explore the cosmic unknown—until this year’s meeting reveals a truth closer to Earth than expected.
The Swiss Masquerade
In Bern’s restrained elegance, a glamorous opera singer and her aging jeweler husband maintain appearances—but behind the glittering mask, betrayal simmers, and love may come at a lethal cost.
The Girl from Estonia
Young Gerda dreams of music, independence, and the glamour of Eurovision, but her ferry ride to Stockholm becomes a quiet meditation on escape, longing, and the fragile joys of freedom.
Nordlys—The Northern Code
In the spring of 1937, as war clouds gather, a Norwegian sea captain and an Estonian barmaid share a fleeting moment of connection, unaware that their meeting marks the end of an era for Europe’s silent northern shores.
