"You Disappear" has been both a critical and a commercial success in Denmark since being published there in March 2012. Library and newspaper readers awarded it the Læsernes Bogpris, and it was nominated for two other major honors, "Politiken"'s Literature Prize and the Martha Prize. It received five-star reviews in "Politiken," "Ekstrabladet", "MetroXpress", "Femina", "Magasinet IN", "Nordjydske Tidende", and "Dagbladenes Bureau". It remained on Denmark's top-10 list of bestselling fiction for an entire year and was the second-bestselling novel in 2012, outsold only by "Marco Effekten" ["The Marco Effect"], the Jussi Adler-Olsen thriller.
