I’m fond of this series tho I believe they’ve been translated out of order makes it a tad bit confusing. This one was very atmospheric for it being close to Christmas as I finished it. As always wonderful descriptions of the Icelandic world that transport you there with each page.
Thanks to Orenda for this review copy.

Even if this is a translated version, the writing is amateurish. In different hands, the story could have come alive, instead of plodding along to an indifferent end.

So turns out this is number 5 in a sequence that I've never read any of the previous of! Didn't stop me enjoying it and wanting to know whodunnit. It's one of those mysteries where the detective also has a backstory that they eek out - I assume over several books. I'll need to try to get my hands on the earlier ones!
