A REYKJAVIK MURDER MYSTERY.

It is a few days before Christmas and a Reykjavik doorman and occasional Santa Claus, Gudlauger, has been found stabbed to death in his hotel room in a sexually compromising position. It soon becomes apparent that both staff and guests have something to hide, but it is the dead man who has the most shocking secret.

Detective Erlendur soon discovers that the placidly affluent appearance of the hotel covers a multitude of sins.

Winner of the Crime Writers' Association Gold Dagger.

Reviews

Gripping, authentic, haunting... The best new series I've read this year comes from Iceland. Arnaldur Indridason is already a literary phenomenon - and it's easy to see why ... I can't wait for the next

—— Harlan Coben

Keeps you guessing right until the end

—— Mail on Sunday

Once again Indridason demonstrates that the best Scandinavian crime writers can hold their own against their British and American rivals

—— Spectator

Outstanding

—— Irish Times

Morosely, intelligently, Erlendur unravels the mystery. With Voices, Indridason proves that his Gold Dagger victory for Silence of the Grave last year was no fluke

—— The Times

An astonishing talent

—— JEFFERY DEAVER

Intelligent and gripping

—— JAMES PATTERSON

Liza Marklund is in a league of her own

—— HENNING MANKELL

An exceptionally well-crafted and suspenseful work
