Darjeeling Mist<br />

Once again we get to enter the adventures of Göran<br />

Borg and Yogendra ‘Yogi’ Singh Thakur, this<br />

time they take us from the bustling Delhi life to<br />

the mist-clad mountains of Darjeeling.<br />

Göran Borg is back on Swedish soil and back<br />

in his old tracks. The revolutionary trip to<br />

India and his love affair with Preeti feel little<br />

more than distant memories, and he struggles<br />

with a general sense of anxiety and failure.<br />

But soon it is time, finally, for Yogi to marry<br />

the love of his life, Lakshmi, and Göran<br />

sees it as an excuse to leave town and some<br />

unresolved conflicts behind him. And Yogi<br />

is happy to see him and get some assistance<br />

with the big wedding preparations.<br />

To finance the wedding Yogi has bought a<br />

prosperous tea estate in Darjeeling for his<br />

father-in-law’s money, and Göran goes with<br />

him to inspect it. But the seemingly easy<br />

deal with a quick refund turns out to be a<br />

con; there is indeed an estate, but in its state<br />

of decay it will not see profit any time soon.<br />

Yogi is defeated, without money he cannot<br />

marry Lakshmi, and he cannot return home<br />

to Delhi to his mother either. And Göran<br />

has to rush back to Sweden; otherwise he<br />

will lose his job. Once again, Göran lets the<br />

fear get the better of him. But what kind of<br />

friend is he to leave his best mate alone on a<br />

mismanaged tea estate to drink away his sorrows?<br />

At the airport Göran changes his mind<br />

and goes back to help Yogi, and together with<br />

the enterprising Lakshmi, who has travelled<br />

alone all across the country to see her beloved<br />

Yogi, they manage to turn things around<br />

at the estate and make their future look a lot<br />

brighter.<br />

Following the success with Delhis vackraste<br />

händer, Mikael Bergstrand is back with a<br />

new entertaining and adventurous novel<br />
