Iceland, 1934. Two boys playing see something they shouldn't have. The consequences will haunt them and their families for generations. Iceland, 2009. The credit crunch bites. The currency has been devalued, savings annihilated, lives ruined. Grassroots revolution is in the air, as is the feeling that someone ought to pay.... And in a country where everyone knows everybody, it isn't hard to draw up a list of exactly who is responsible. And then, one by one, to cross them off.

Then her husband comes downstairs with an announcement, and Anna is suddenly, shockingly alone. Reeling, desperate for distraction, Anna returns to the podcast. Other people's problems are much better than one's own - a sunken yacht, a murdered family, a hint of international conspiracy. But this case actually is Anna's problem. She knows one of the victims from an earlier life.

Iceland, 2017: when a young Italian tourist is found brutally murdered at a sacred church in northern Iceland, Magnus Jonson, newly returned to the Reykjavík police force, is called in to investigate.

Magnus quickly begins to suspect that there may be more links to the murdered woman than anyone in the film crew will acknowledge. As jealousies come to the surface, new tensions replace old friendships and history begins to rewrite itself, a shocking second murder leads Magnus to question everything he thought he knew....

I enjoy these books. Some of the
pleasure is geographical. some is archaeological. Then there is murder, of course. and character development. The Narrator has the perfect voice for the lead. It would be easier for me if the people walking through these pages had American names like John, James, Carol.... I struggle with hearing Icelandic names and remembering who each goes with. But, if you soldier on with the crisp, intelligent mystery you will find this a worthwhile use of your credits.
