From the bestselling author of The Mysterious Case of The Missing Crime Writer comes the next mystery featuring detective Helgi Reykdal.
This program is read by actor Will Tudor, who has appeared in Game of Thrones, The Wheel of Time, and Wolf Hall.
“A master of the Icelandic thriller.” —New York Post
As snow blankets Reykjavík and Christmas approaches, young detective Helgi is looking forward to a quiet holiday—until those plans are torn away in a flash. One month after his girlfriend Aníta is killed in a car accident, he returns to work in Reykjavík, haunted by loss and rage. The driver—Helgi's ex-girlfriend Bergþóra, a violent alcoholic whose abuse he kept secret—insists Aníta's death was an accident and walks free.
To escape his mounting despair, Helgi throws himself into the unsolved disappearance of his predecessor, Hulda, a retired officer long presumed dead. But as he follows the traces she left behind, the lines between her past and his present begin to blur . . .
When Bergþóra is later found lifeless in her bath, suspicion falls squarely on Helgi. With his own colleagues turning against him, can he uncover the truth in time?

Commentaires
“Reflecting their author’s passion for classic whodunits, both Helgi and several other characters are inspired in their actions and deductions by half a dozen golden age mysteries . . . it’s fascinating to watch the traditional tropes Jónasson does and doesn’t borrow.”—Kirkus Reviews
“Welcome to some powerful nordic noir that is partly a novel of suspense, with the shadow of Agatha Christie, and partly terrifying in its own right.”—firstCLUE
“Had me gripped to the last page.”—Anthony Horowitz
