Interesting read and very atmospheric. The characters come off a little cold and distant and I'm not sure if that's a translation issue or the author's style. Either way, it was a fast, enjoyable read.

Ari Thor investigates the death of a young woman, who had returned to her childhood home and was found at the bottom of cliffs, a fate that seems to run in her family. With most of the action taking place in a remote house next to a lighthouse in isolated, wind swept Northern Iceland, with only a couple of suspects, this felt like an Agatha Christie novel, no bad thing.
