For as long as Isabella can remember, something dark has been growing inside her, something that feels like a thunderstorm.

She and her mom move from place to place, always on the lookout for their next adventure. Life is exciting, but there’s still something that never feels quite right. Their journey is put on hold when they arrive to a village in the middle of the woods. Here Isabella finally makes friends, and it feels like home. At least that’s what she thinks.

Mysterious things are happening, and a strange oak tree in the middle of the forest reveals that Isabella is facing a decision that could change everything. Someone is waiting for Isabella out there, perhaps holding the answers she needs. Will she be brave enough to make her decision?

Together, Maja Lunde and Lisa Aisato have made Norwegian literary history with The Seasonal Quartet. The Thunder Queen is the final book of the series, a story for anyone who loves hide-and-seek in the autumn darkness, warm hugs and great mysteries.
