”One day we will return” takes place in the year 1790 on the Swedish slave colony Saint Barthélemy in the Caribbean.

"I was shocked myself when I realized the extent of Sweden's colonial ambitions, and everything that I had not learned in school. When I realized how much we had swept under the carpet, I knew that it was a story that I just had to write”, says Bergfeldt in a press release.

The book is the first in a series of novels and will be published in May next year.

The host and journalist Bergfeldt has previously written crime novels and reportage books.
