The Mist

A Thriller

By: Ragnar Jónasson

Narrated by: Amanda Redman

The final nail-biting installment in Ragnar Jónasson's critically-acclaimed Hidden Iceland series, The Mist, from the newest superstar on the Icelandic crime fiction scene.

1987. An isolated farm house in the east of Iceland.

The snowstorm should have shut everybody out. But it didn't.

The couple should never have let him in. But they did.

An unexpected guest, a liar, a killer. Not all will survive the night. And Detective Hulda will be haunted forever.

A Macmillan Audio production from Minotaur Books

"If you’re looking for a fictional good fright to distract you from the real ones, look no further than this third entry in the Hidden Iceland series (available June 23), featuring brainy, glum police inspector Hulda Hermannsdottir." -- Washington Post

Critic reviews

"One of the author's best plots, layered with that dour Scandinavian atmosphere we love." —New York Times Book Review on The Island

"Ragnar Jonasson is the Stephen King of Icelandic thrillers." —She Reads

"Masterly...Jónasson delivers a mind-bending look into human darkness that earns its twists." —Publishers Weekly (starred review) on The Island

Grim, dark, beautifully done

Bleak and fascinating. Psychologically engaging, complex and twisting. I am eager to hear more from this author.

Hold your breath!

You’re in for a great ride. Full of atmosphere, tension, twists and turns with a satisfying end...well done.

Good tense drama

Good thriller but hits on some very triggering topics for some. Well written and fast paced

Fantastic

This is an absolutely wonderful read. As usual, the character development is superb, the sense of place is firmly and clearly established. You feel transported to this dark, severe, and bleak yet stunningly beautiful place. The narration is perfect and could not be improved upon. She kills it! This story is very well told, well written and unputdownable. Honestly I wish I could get into his other stuff like Snowblind, etc but I tried a couple of those and I guess it’s just different I could not ever really get into it. I may try again though. I’ve listened to most of the Hulda books twice and they are just as good if not better the second go round. That’s just yay.
Thank you Ragnar Jonasson!
Thank you Amanda Redman!

I kept waiting to enjoy this… it never happened

I had been looking for a new author to really enjoy- I am a huge mystery fan and had literally run out of people to read so I was excited when a whole collection were recommended. Maybe I started on the wrong one but I keep waiting to enjoy this listen- it never happened. Narrator was excellent though.
