The Reckoning by Yrsa Sigurðardóttir
5.0
4.5 *s rounded up!
Yrsa Sigurdardóttir is one of my favorite Nordic Noir authors. The Reckoning is book 2 in the Children’s House series featuring Detective Huldar and child psychologist Freyja. A note is found in a time capsule at a school threatening to kill 6 people identified only initials. Since the note was written by a child, Huldar brings Freyja in to help. This novel has everything I love about good crime fiction. It is multi-layered with many interesting characters and I did not guess the killer. I am looking forward to seeing Huldar and Freyja’s characters develop more throughout this series.
