Brilliant. Witty. Impossible to put down or figure out. Classic Yrsa Sigurdardottir.

Didn’t like this book at all. I liked the setting of a winter wonderland where there is a killer around. However some of the story was just so ridiculous as to be believable, for instance the detective in charge is heavily pregnant. So much so that two of the other characters discuss what to do if she gives birth in the office! And if that’s not enough, she accompanies the SWAT team along to a raid to arrest someone who is quite possibly armed and dangerous! Absolutely ridiculous.
Life is too short to read books I do not agree with. Forget it.

Поліцейська Ерла, то просто ТОП ЗРОБИЛА КІНЕЦЬ ВСІЙ СЕРІЇ КНИЖОК. Я ТАК РЕГОТАЛА, ЩО НЕ МОГЛА ПОТІМ ГОДИНУ ЗАСНУТИ. ДЯКУЮ ЇЙ. Після такої інформації, що за 3 секунди вилилася на Фрейю, хтось буде багато пити вино, дуже багато.
Мені сподобалося закінчення серії автором. У всіх шанс на щасливе майбутнє і це найголовніше.
Детективна лінія дуже жорстока, навіть читати було важко.

Book #6 in the Children's House series by my favorite Icelandic author. I love this duo of Huldar and Freyja and their developing relationship both personally and professionally. When the story opens with 3 time jumps, one of which includes a dismembered body, I am in! I really hope there is more to come in this series because I am hooked.
