Acerca de esta escucha
In the mystical Snæfellsnes region on Iceland's west coast - at a New Age health resort in a renovated farmhouse - the body of a young woman is discovered, savagely beaten, with pins inserted into her feet. Thóra Gudmundsdóttir, lawyer and single mother of two, has been retained to represent the resort's owner and prime suspect. But a fresh corpse is not the only abomination Thóra encounters here - for local legend says this place is haunted, and a bizarre series of inexplicable occurrences soon suggests it is so. As Thóra digs deeply into the farm's past, she unearths a shocking history of evil and depravity, and her once-solid view of reality begins to waver. But a second murder, shockingly similar to the first, pulls Thóra back to earth by making two inescapable truths abundantly clear: the killer she seeks is very real and is not finished yet.

It isn't long before Thóra and her associate, Matthew Reich, uncover the deceased student's obsession with Iceland's grisly history of torture, execution, and witch hunts.

And then two of the boys go astray.... Decades later single father Odinn is looking into alleged abuse at the center.

Una wants nothing more than to teach, but she has been unable to secure steady employment in Reykjavík. Her savings are depleted, her love life is nonexistent, and she cannot face another winter staring at the four walls of her shabby apartment. Celebrating Christmas and ringing in 1986 in the remote fishing hamlet of Skálar seems like a small price to pay for a chance to earn some teaching credentials and get her life back on track.

The story opens with the apparently accidental drowning of a sixth form student in the Norfolk countryside. As a matter of routine, or so it seems, the case passes across the desk of Detective Sergeant Smith, recently returned to work after an internal investigation into another case that has led to tensions between officers at Kings Lake police headquarters. As an ex-DCI, Smith could have retired by now, and it is clear that some of his superiors wish that he would do so.

When a young woman is found brutally murdered in her own apartment with an intricate pattern of lines carved into her face, Copenhagen police detectives Jeppe Korner and Anette Werner are assigned to the case. Soon, they establish a link between the victim, Julie Stender, and her landlady, Esther de Laurenti, who’s a bit too fond of drink and the host of raucous dinner parties with her artist friends. Esther also turns out to be a budding novelist - and when Julie turns up as a murder victim in the unfinished mystery she’s writing, the link between fiction and real life grows.

Ridiculously Good
This author is so talented. This is the third book of hers that I’ve purchased and absolutely loved. An atmospheric yet realistic and utterly believable ghost story. Interesting characters who are all quite well developed, sense of place is established and detailed. This author brings you into her stories in a human and relevant way. There’s no red herrings or other tricks to fill paper, just good solid storytelling. Totally recommend and absolutely worth a credit.
Yes yes yes...

Good story hampered by awful narration
The story itself is interesting and (mostly) well told. Wiley's narration, particular characters with accents and male characters, is awful. At times, characters read much older than they are or are comically tragic. Sigurdardottir is one of Iceland's most well known writers, and deserves better narration than this.

The Reader
The reader is so overly expressive that I have stopped reading it at Chapter 7. The reader sounds like she is reading to 5 year olds - not appropriate for this material.
