The second book from Yrsa Sigurdardottir is funny as well as being a taut and accomplished novel - Independent, Books of the YearYrsa Sigurdardottir brilliantly conjures an atmosphere of creeping menace and unreality. - GuardianThis is well-written, pacey and wonderfully atmospheric, but the USP here is the character of Gudmundsdottir. Wry, very funny and valiantly trying to balance the demands of her private life with her work - she is a joy. I'm looking forward to number three. - GuardianSigurdardotittir delivers terrific clammy atmosphere and frequent frissons of fear; she is entitled to join the front rank of Nordic crime writers. - The TimesBoth frightening and funny - a terrific trick if you can pull it off. - ObserverDistinguished by superb evocations of extraordinary landscapes and . . . rivetingly gruesome inventiveness. - IndependentThe numerous twists and turns are worthy of Agatha Christie and keep the reader guessing until the very end. - Sunday TelegraphA suspenseful, sophisticated story - Sunday Telegraph
