Sergeant Gunnhildur, recently promoted from her post in rural Iceland to Reykjavík’s Serious Crime Unit, is tasked with hunting down escaped convict Long Ommi, who has embarked on a spree of violent score-settling in and around the city. Meanwhile, she’s also investigating the murder of a fitness guru in her own city-center apartment. As Gunna delves into the cases, she unearths some unwelcome secrets and influential friends shared by both guru and convict. Set in an Iceland plagued by an ongoing financial crisis, Gunna has to take stock of the whirlwind changes that have swept through the country - and the fact that at the highest levels of power, the system’s endemic corruption still leads, inevitably, to murder.

It was this book that piqued my interest in Icelandic culture and in visiting Iceland. The story is compelling and I think for me, it's because Iceland is a small country in terms of population and Reykjavik is a small city where Gunna and her colleagues know almost everyone. The glimpse into daily life and the effects of the economic crash on ordinary folks are the things that make this book really interesting to me. I've since purchased most of the rest of this series. I love Davina Porter as a narrator and while I've listened to the other books in this series with Mel Hudson as the narrator (and she is excellent too), Davina Porter will always be the "voice" of Gunna!

Great book; great narrator
