The only chance for the economy to revive is for the junior team to win the hockey championship final. But for some of the seventeen-year-old hockey players, educated in the \"victory is all that matters\" spirit, the pressure becomes too much, and the importance they place on victory transcends the moral dimension of their community life. And when interests – be they financial or glory-related – become more important than people, victims become perpetrators, and those who are different become outcasts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBackman brings two current issues into discussion: sexual assault and ethnic and gender discrimination. Without pointing fingers, without being biased or finding culprits, he lays out the facts, not omitting the context, and leaves readers to judge for themselves.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2.

But salvation appears from where no one expects it. A \"visionary\" politician, going against the current, sees in the difficult situation of the club an opportunity to secure his seat in the new elections. The salvation proposal he makes to the club's director, Peter Andersson, is a game full of compromises that will further divide the community. Meanwhile, the residents of Björnstad still have some lessons to learn about acceptance, as the new hockey coach is a woman and, moreover, a lesbian, and the team captain, one of the most admired young men in Björnstad, turns out to be gay.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e3.

Peter, former director of the hockey team, is the subject of a journalistic investigation that could land him in prison; almost an alcoholic, Amat, the hope of the hockey team, refuses to train anymore and is about to lose everything; and Matteo, a kid who loses his sister, wants to take justice into his own hands.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReturning to town to lay a loved one to rest, Maya and Benji will be drawn, willy-nilly, into the vortex of old problems. It doesn't take much for the situation to explode, and the price paid by all will be high. Continuing the story from \"Beartown\" and \"Us Against You\", Backman's new novel offers a devastating ending.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"PRINTEDGES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56667697807625,"sku":null,"price":235.0,"currency_code":"RON","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0954\/9919\/0537\/files\/3DC8BD1C-A698-4B12-9BFB-2EBC9028F7C1.png?v=1768151373","url":"https:\/\/www.printedges.ro\/en\/products\/trilogia-scandalul-cu-printed-edges-fredrik-backman","provider":"PRINTEDGES","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
