Selected Praise
“If you’re looking for a fictional good fright to distract you from the real ones, look no further than this third entry... The talented Jónasson backs up two months to portray - with the precision of Harold Pinter - two complex marriages... On a couple of occasions, Hermansdóttir shrieks with horror, and reads will, too.”
“An unforgettable end to Ragnar Jónasson’s terrific Hidden Iceland trilogy.”
“Chilling, creepy, perceptive, almost unbearably tense.”
