From the internationally best-selling author of Purge and When the Doves Disappeared, a spellbinding new novel occur present-day Helsinki in regards to a young female with a fantastical top secret who is trying to solve the secret of her mother's loss of life. When Anita Naakka jumps in front of an oncoming train, her little girl, Norma, is remaining alone with the trick they have spent their lives concealing: Norma has supernatural head of hair, sensitive to the slightest changes in her mood - and the moods of those around her - moving of its accord, corkscrewing when danger is near. Therefore it is her head of hair that alerts her, while she speaks with a peculiar man at her mother's funeral, that her mother may not took her own life. Aiming to reconstruct Anita's last months - sifting through puzzling cell phone records, bank statements, video documents - Norma starts to realize that her mother understood more about her hair's capabilities than she let on: a sinister fact beyond Norma's imagining. As Sofi Oksanen leads us a lot more deeply into Norma's world, weaving along past and present, she gives us a dark family theatre that is clearly a searing family portrait of both exploitation of women's physiques and the extremes to which people is going for the sake of beauty.
