A desperate sawmill owner’s attempt to save his business spirals into crime, chaos and unintended consequences in a hilarious dark, nailbiting thriller by the international bestselling author of The Man Who Died.**Shortlisted for Best Finnish Crime Novel of the Year*** 'The king of the humorous crime caper' Abir Mukherjee'It may seem hard to find good comic crime-writers, but clearly we haven't been looking in Finland' Telegraph________Heikki Nevalainen is the proud owner of a once successful sawmill, a mountain of debt and very few options to deal with either of them. An unexpected solution arrives in the form of local gangster Ismo Sippo. Dispose of Sippo’s dead wife, and the sawmill can keep running. Refuse, and Heikki loses everything. Horrified but desperate, Heikki agrees, loads Annaleena into his car and heads for the mill. But Annaleena proves to be not quite as dead as expected. As a Belgian buyer arrives to inspect the mill’s timber, Heikki scrambles to keep up appearances. But the situation is splintering fast, and even his own workers seem to be hatching plans of their own… Deadlines loom, tempers fray and misunderstandings multiply, and as the interminable situation grows ever worse, Heikki discovers that keeping a sawmill running is hard enough without a half-dead body and potentially fatal complications… Blending deadpan humour, escalating danger and absolute chaos, The Fresh Cut is Antti Tuomainen at his most audacious, as good intentions, bad decisions and a small Finnish town collide with explosive results.___________

«Großartig!» Aki KaurismäkiJaakko ist 37, als sein Arzt ihm eröffnet, dass er keine Grippe hat, sondern sterben wird, und zwar sehr bald: Jemand hat ihn über längere Zeit hinweg vergiftet. Das an sich ist schon geeignet, einem Mann so richtig den Tag zu verderben. Leider wird Jaakko bei der Rückkehr nach Hause außerdem noch Zeuge, wie ihn seine Frau mit Petri betrügt, dem jungen, knackigen Angestellten ihrer gemeinsamen Firma. Der Firma, die in jüngster Zeit gefährlich Konkurrenz bekommen hat. Jaakko beschließt herauszufinden, wer ihn um die Ecke bringen will. Und er wird sein Unternehmen für die Zeit nach seinem Tod fit machen. Der Handel mit den in Japan zu Höchstpreisen gehandelten Matsutake-Pilzen läuft nämlich ausgezeichnet, und in Finnlands Wäldern wachsen nun einmal die besten. Doch das neue Konkurrenzunternehmen kämpft wirklich mit harten Bandagen. Ist es da Jaakos Schuld, wenn es zu Toten kommt? Und hat er überhaupt Zeit für anderer Leute Sorgen? Denn so viel ist klar: Mit dem Tod vor Augen geht alles leichter, gilt es doch, jede Minute zu genießen.«Die letzten Meter bis zum Friedhof» ist nicht einfach ein Kriminalroman, sondern ein besonderes Buch: lustig und tragisch, berührend und skurril, lebensklug und nachdenklich, ein Roman, der trotz seines makabren Themas die Lebensgeister weckt, und eine schräge Lektüre, bei der man sich fühlt, als befände man sich in einem Film von Aki Kaurismäki.

Eine Kleinstadt im finnischen Nirgendwo. Der neue Investor hat den Ort in "Palm Beach, Finnland" umgetauft, warum auch nicht? Alles erinnert an "Miami Vice" und "Baywatch": Die Namen der farbenfroh überstrichenen maroden Hütten, die hautengen Badeanzüge der Rettungsschwimmer, das überdimensionale Werbebanner am Ortseingang. Davon abgesehen unterscheidet sich das Küstennest kaum von den anderen traurigen Badeorten der Umgebung.Olivia Kosk ist nach gescheiterter Ehe gerade erst zurückgekehrt, um als Surflehrerin neu anzufangen, als sie einen fremden Mann in ihrer Küche auffindet. Ermordet. Obendrein auf ziemlich unschöne Weise.Weil die Polizei vor Ort den Fall nicht lösen kann, wird Jan Nyman, verdeckter Ermittler der finnischen Polizei, in das kuriose Ferienparadies entsandt. Getarnt als urlaubender Mathelehrer soll er herausfinden, was sich tatsächlich zugetragen hat. Sein Chef hat ihn zu einem Surfkurs bei Olivia verdonnert, der Hauptverdächtigen, und Nyman spürt schnell, dass er sich zu ihr hingezogen fühlt. Dass sie dringend Geld für die Renovierung ihres Hauses benötigt, rückt Olivia allerdings in ein ziemlich zweifelhaftes Licht. Aber Geldsorgen haben in Palm Beach, Finnland anscheinend alle. Und dann tritt auch noch ein Auftragskiller auf den Plan. Es ist der Bruder des Toten aus Olivias Küche. Und er will sich rächen.

Die Nr. 1 aus Finnland: Von The Times ausgezeichnet als eines der besten Bücher der letzten fünf Jahre, prämiert mit dem Petrona Award als bester skandinavischer Kriminalroman 2020.Rallyefahrer Tarvainen rast mit zu viel Promille und Selbstmordgedanken durch die schneebedeckten finnischen Wälder, als es am Himmel aufblitzt und etwas in sein Auto kracht. Das Etwas entpuppt sich als äußerst wertvoller Meteorit, so viel ist schnell allen Bewohnern des Örtchens Hurmevaara klar. Der Schatz wird vorübergehend in die Obhut von Pfarrer Joel gegeben, der als ehemaliger Militär kampferfahren ist. Was sich auszahlt, denn von dem Meteoriten hat auch das organisierte Verbrechen Wind bekommen. Dabei hat Joel ganz andere Sorgen. Seine Frau ist schwanger, aber nicht von ihm. Und so kämpft er gegen Berufskriminelle und andere Schatzsucher und fragt sich derweil, was für ihn in den Sternen steht.

Die Nummer 1 aus Finnland: Tuomainens Romane sind wie die Filme von Aki Kaurismäki: spannend, tragisch, humorvoll und schräg.Alles im Leben ist berechenbar. Davon ist der Versicherungsmathematiker Henri Koskinen überzeugt; beruflich wie privat kalkuliert er stets bis zur letzten Dezimalstelle. Doch dann verliert Henri seinen Job. Und erbt einen Abenteuerpark – mit ziemlich eigenwilligen Mitarbeitern und beunruhigenden finanziellen Problemen. Offenbar wurden riesige Kredite aufgenommen, bei zweifelhaften Kapitalgebern. Und die Herrschaften wollen nun ihr Geld zurück.Im Abenteuerpark trifft Henri auch auf Laura, eine Künstlerin mit Vergangenheit. Als die Kriminellen kommen, um das Geld einzutreiben, und sich die Beziehung zu Laura vertieft, sieht Henri sich mit Situationen und Gefühlen konfrontiert, die selbst für einen versierten Versicherungsmathematiker einfach nur unkalkulierbar erscheinen.«The funniest writer in Europe.» The Times

Tuomainens Romane sind wie die Filme von Aki Kaurismäki: spannend, tragisch, humorvoll und schräg.Versicherungsmathematiker Henri Koskinen hat gerade sein Leben und den ererbten Abenteuerpark wieder in Ordnung gebracht, als ein Mann aus seiner Vergangenheit auftaucht und alles wieder auf den Kopf stellt. Weitere Probleme entstehen, als der Ausrüstungslieferant des Parks von einem zwielichtigen Trio übernommen wird: Warum will die Firma «Finnische Spiele AG» die neue Elchschanze nicht an Henri verkaufen, obwohl er sie für die Hauptattraktion des Parks braucht? Und als wäre das nicht genug, steht Henris Beziehung zu der Künstlerin Laura Helanto auf der Kippe. Um diese zahlreichen Klippen zu umschiffen, muss Henri Koskinen präziser denn je rechnen.
