Red as Blood

De: Lilja Sigurdardottir

Narrado por: Colleen Prendergast

When entrepreneur Flosi arrives home for dinner one night, he discovers that his house has been ransacked, and his wife Gudrun missing. A letter on the kitchen table confirms that she has been kidnapped. If Flosi doesn't agree to pay an enormous ransom, Gudrun will be killed. Forbidden from contacting the police, he gets in touch with Áróra, who specialises in finding hidden assets, and she, alongside her detective friend Daniel, try to get to the bottom of the case without anyone catching on. Meanwhile, Áróra and Daniel continue the puzzling, devastating search for Áróra's sister Ísafold, who disappeared without trace. As fog descends, in a cold and rainy Icelandic autumn, the investigation becomes increasingly dangerous, and confusing.

Loved it!

My only complaint is I wish her books were longer and there were more of them!!

Another great Nordic murder mystery

I love murder mysteries with a focus on the characters rather than the bloodshed or brutality, and this fits the ticket. Completely engrossing and suspenseful with our heroes in trouble at the end in spite of resolution of the murder. Narration was excellent. No time to write any more reviews, I have to start the next book in the series!
