The Great Dane

By Suanne Laqueur

"The Great Dane is both literary and approachable, a modern love story distinguished by its literary prose and comedic dialogue. Laqueur has crafted an unusual love story with heart, humor, and enough narrative mystery to keep readers turning the pages." -Kirkus Reviews

An unsolved video game puzzle. A grief-stricken father. A isolated farm in upstate New York holding twenty years of secrets.

Reeling from the tragic loss of his only son, Liko Greenman clings to the one thing that connects him to his late child: an obscure, unsolved riddle inside the video game Three Hares. Following a mysterious clue left behind by the game's developer, Liko arrives at a remote Birch Island farm, where he meets Danelaw Strong.

Dane is a striking, genderqueer man carrying his own heavy solitude. For over twenty years, he shared a unique, deeply devoted three-way bond with the creator of Three Hares and his wife. Now on his own, bereft and lonely, Dane agrees to help Liko decipher the game's final secret.

As summer turns to autumn, working together to solve the puzzle unlocks unexpected feelings, unburied grief, and a profound connection neither man saw coming.

Perfect for fans of John Irving, Fredrik Backman, Matt Haig, John Boyne, and lovers of emotional, thought-provoking fiction.
