But one of them isn't going to make it make alive. And Detective Inspector Hulda Hermannsdottir is determined to find the truth in the darkness. Praise for Ragnar Jonasson Seductive ... an old-fashioned murder mystery with a strong central character and the fascinating background of a small Icelandic town cut off by snow.

The book of his which reminds me most of Agatha Christie' Kiljan, on The Island.
