The Great Dane

After the sudden death of his only child, Liko Greenman is looking for any way to pass, waste or kill time. He becomes obsessed with a compelling mystery within his son’s favorite video game, Three Hares, and is determined to solve it. The game travels along the Old Silk Road, following the triskelion motif of the Three Hares in art and architecture. The player’s journey ends abruptly at Paderborn Cathedral in Germany, but fans are certain the game isn’t over.

Liko receives a condolence letter from the gaming company, with a single clue that leads him to the rural town of Birch Island, New York and a farm called Schoenfeld’s. There, Liko comes face-to-face with Danelaw Strong, who has one blue eye, one brown eye, and a compelling, dual personality.

For 22 years, Dane was intimately involved with Ethan Hasen, the creator of Three Hares, and Ethan’s wife, Nomi. As three deeply bonded lovers, they made a life together at Schoenfeld’s that defied convention. Now only Dane is left to work the farm, a single hare grieving the loss of soulmates and simply concentrating on doing the next thing.

Recognizing they’re both killing time and each has something to give the other, Liko agrees to move to Schoenfeld’s for the summer and Dane will guide him in solving the video game’s mystery. So begins a journey of friendship, love, grief and identity that will show Liko there’s more to the Three Hares game and more to Danelaw Strong than he could possibly imagine.

Suanne Laqueur’s newest novel is a chimerical blend of romance, drama, identity, power and hope. Combining legend and folklore with her signature depth and understanding of the human experience, The Great Dane explores how we view the most profound human connection in pairs, when three is often love’s most magical number.
