"I flee, running down the stairs though there is no one who could chase me. There is actually no one. Everyone is dead. Mum is dead. Dad is dead. My little brother is dead. And probably everybody else too."
 
世界黑暗了,完全沉默,13岁的Hedvig在街头上看不到一个人的踪影,只有尸体。在这个世界上,她是孤单的——她的全家,以及剩下的人口,全部都因为得了一种神秘的发烧病而死去。Hedvi需离开了城市,来到一个被遗弃的农场试图自己生存下去,慢慢地开始新生活。但是,最困难的不是寻找食物或者取暖,而是面对自己的恐惧以及思考。世界上没有一个人,这样的世界值得活下去吗?她接下来的人生都是一个人吗?外面有没有人可以跟她说话、谈恋爱?为什么只有她存活下来?
 
现在,她的每一天就是照顾动物、生火、挤牛奶、准备迎接冬天的来临。她只能一天一天,一秒一秒的过下去,不让自己想太多。但是时间这么漫长,她又是一个人,她能够生存下去吗?直到有一天,她在房子外面看到了人类的脚印。。。

好评:
“Sofia Nordin's gripping, dense and horrid story about life after a catastrophe is unique of its kind. It crawls under your skin, poses questions about our existence and confronts us with things that we would rather not to think about.
 
Disaster! Fight for survival! Suspense! Grief! Friendship!
Sofia Nordin has with "One second at a time," created a frightfully exciting novel that contains all of that and then some. Frightfully exciting! /…/ And don’t start reading if you are short of time to read to the end ... Hunger Games-warning.” - Johanna Lindbäck, Bokhora
 
“Sofia Nordin’s story captivates the to end. She skilfully portrays a young girl’s development, puts words to feelings of loneliness and longing, and describes a slowly building friendship. She offers a fine portrait of Hedvig, a sullen teenager facing great challenges. Like the title of the book suggests, we should all live moment by moment.” Lena Kårelund, Svenska Dagbladet
