Description
Icelandic detective Elma faces mortal danger as she investigates the death of a young man in a mysterious Akranes house fire, and a Dutch au pair's perfect placement turns deadly ... The breathtaking third instalment in the award-winning Forbidden Iceland series. ***WINNER of the CWA John Creasey (New Blood) Dagger*** ‘Fans of Nordic Noir will love this' Ann Cleeves ‘Elma is a fantastic heroine' Sunday Times ‘Chilling and addictive, with a twist you won't see coming. I loved it!' Shari Lapena ‘Complex, gripping and moving' The Times _________________________ The small community of Akranes is devastated when a young man dies in a mysterious house fire, and when Detective Elma and her colleagues from West Iceland CID discover the fire was arson, they become embroiled in an increasingly perplexing case involving multiple suspects. What's more, the dead man's final online search raises fears that they could be investigating not one murder, but two. A few months before the fire, a young Dutch woman takes a job as an au pair in Iceland, desperate to make a new life for herself after the death of her father. But the seemingly perfect family who employs her turns out to have problems of its own and she soon discovers she is running out of people to turn to. As the police begin to home in on the truth, Elma, already struggling to come to terms with a life-changing event, finds herself in mortal danger as it becomes clear that someone has secrets they'll do anything to hide... ____________________________ Praise for the Forbidden Iceland series: ‘An exciting and harrowing tale' Ragnar Jónasson ‘Eerie and chilling. I loved every word!' Lesley Kara ‘Not only a full-fat mystery, but also a chilling demonstration of how monsters are made' The Times ‘Beautifully written, spine-tingling and disturbing ... a thrilling new voice in Icelandic crime fiction' Yrsa Sigurðardóttir ‘As chilling and atmospheric as an Icelandic winter' Lisa Gray ‘An unsettling and exciting read with a couple of neat red herrings to throw the reader off the scent' NB Magazine ‘Chilling and troubling ... reminiscent of Jorn Lier Horst‘s Norwegian procedurals. This is a book that makes an impact' Crime Fiction Lover ‘Elma is a memorably complex character' Financial Times ‘The twist comes out of the blue ... enthralling' Tap The Line Magazine For fans of Ragnar Jonasson, Camilla Lackberg, Ruth Rendell, Gillian McAllister and Shari Lapena
