The year is 1983 and at a former sanatorium in Iceland, two people are dead, both discovered by one of the workers Tinna, and it’s believed that the second body, the chief physician, killed the first person, then killed himself. Jump to the year 2012, and Helgi Reykdal, is writing his thesis on these murders, and also has been offered a job with the police department, a dream job for himself. He starts investigating the two deaths with people that were there then, and gets some information but not much, then Tinna is murdered, and her death seems to be tied to what happened in 1983. He soon learns startling facts that lead him to who he believes is the killer, and in a twist, the book ends on a shocking event that has nothing to do with this case. Author Ragnar Jónasson is an icelandic novelist who writes the best thrillers. If you’ve never read one of his books, do yourself a favor and pick up this one, and any of his previous novels, you will not be sorry!
