Now this is Nordic horror! Cold, creepy and unsettling. Only reason for 4 was part of the twist/ending. But overall just what I was looking for in a winter read.
It’s almost midnight I must try and sleep.

Do not cross this ghost. Very creepy story. There are two separate stories that ever so gradually come together, one is the ghost story, and the other is a missing boy, a suspicious suicide and bizarre vandalism. The isolated Icelandic setting is especially effective to keep the living literally in the dark and at the mercy of themselves as much as of "something else." A good ghost story without horror and gore is pretty hard to find, but here it is.
This was much more of a noir novel than horror for me and the jumping between two narratives was a little annoying when I only cared about one.
