Agnes Ravatn's The Guests is the story of a couple's seemingly innocent getaway in the Norwegian fjords that turns sinister when a small lie to their neighbors spirals into a chilling web of deceit.
From Agnes Ravatn: "Since The Guests is set during a warm Norwegian summer, I’d suggest a classic and beloved Norwegian summer dish: fresh shrimp with white bread (reker og loff). It’s simple, sociable, and best enjoyed outdoors with good company—just like in the novel. You serve the shrimp with mayonnaise, lemon wedges, and perhaps a sprinkle of dill, and everyone peels their own at the table. It’s as much about the ritual as the food. If the book club wants a drink pairing, a crisp white wine or a cold beer goes perfectly."
