View AllAnother very solid showing in Jonasson's Dark Iceland series. This is my favourite so far, and I was seriously hooked throughout. Multiple storylines converge in really interesting ways, and the resolution was immensely satisfying. Yeah, I'm aware of how infuriatingly vague that is, but it's crime fiction, people! Even a list of characters can spoil the plot! I really enjoy Ari Thor as a character, even if I don't think I'd like him as a person - lucky for me, he's fictional. I was pleased to see Isrun back, and I loved her arc and subsequent character development. I can't wait to move on to the next book - I'm firmly on the Icelandic Noir train, thanks to Jonasson. Choo choo!**also, I listened to the audiobook and Leighton Pugh is as wonderful as he was in the last book**
