A novella featuring a female Icelandic detective - not as good as the previous two books. (

Gunna is a member of the serious crimes unit and stationed in Reykjavik. She sends Helgi, another team member, to the north of Iceland where he grew up, to assist in the investigation. This story is short, with major loose ends being tied up, and some minor ones being dropped. Helgi's work receives a larger part of the focus of the story. Not as good as the first two books, and I still look forward to the next novel, which is full-length. (
