Thriller

“[An] outstanding crime novel. . . . This incandescent exposé of European and American mores profoundly entertains and provokes disturbing questions.” —Publishers Weekly, Starred and Boxed Review

She knew it was a weird place. She’d heard the stories, seen the movies, read the books. But now police Chief Inspector Sigrid Ødegård has to leave her native Norway and actually go there; to that land across the Atlantic where her missing brother is implicated in the mysterious death of a prominent African American academic. America.

Sigrid is plunged into a United States where race and identity, politics and promise, reverberate in every aspect of daily life. Working with—or, if necessary, against—the police, she must negotiate the local political minefields and navigate the backwoods of the Adirondacks to uncover the truth before events escalate further.

Refreshingly funny, slyly perceptive, American by Day is “a superb novel on all levels” (Times, UK).

“Sure Derek Miller's novels are smart and full of heart and savvy and hilarious, but even more than all of this, he's fun.” —Richard Russo, Pulitzer Prize–winning author of Empire Falls

“Ingenious. Humorous. Wonderful.” —Lee Child, #1 New York Times–bestselling author of the Jack Reacher series

“Engrossing and wryly humorous but also deeply serious work.” —Library Journal, Starred Review

“Miller offers a slightly different spin on Scandinavia-set crime fiction, wrapping a thriller plot around the character-driven substance of literary fiction to produce a hybrid that is compelling from any angle.” —Booklist, Starred Review

“A solid mystery wrapped up in musings about individuality and freedom, grief and sadness.” —Kirkus Reviews
