review 1: A compelling mystery by an Icelandic writer. I have enjoyed this series for the background of life in Iceland, and have found the characters and stories hold my interest. The main character, Thora is a lawyer who has been drawn into unravelling mysteries for people. When a luxury yacht comes into the Reykjavík harbour with no one on board, Thora is hired to find out what happened to the family that was on board. The story alternates between what happens on board and Thora's investigation. A sad and creepy story that I found compelling. Recommended.
review 2: I love the style of these books and the way the plot unfolds from the protagonist's viewpoint as Thora is piecing together the clues. I'm surprised that some of the other reviews have been so negative b... moreecause I thought that this was a classic Thora novel. Great characters and an interesting plot. I didn't guess the twist at the end and I won't spoil it for anyone about to read it. Looking forward to the next book already! less
