Four friends. One night. Not everyone will come out alive . . . The ice-cold new stand-alone mystery from 'world-class crime writer' Ragnar Jónasson

When a deadly snowstorm strikes the Icelandic highlands, four friends seek shelter in a small, abandoned hunting lodge, in the middle of nowhere, with no way of communicating with the outside world.
They are isolated - but they are not alone...
As the night darkens, and fears intensify, an old secret gradually surfaces - one that forever changed the course of their friendship. Those dark memories could hold the key to the mystery the friends now find themselves in.
And whether they will survive until morning....

Praise for Ragnar Jónasson
-

Jónasson is an automatic must-read for me . . . possibly the best Scandi writer working today
Lee Child

A master of the Icelandic thriller.
New York Post

Invigorating Iceland-set slice of Nordic Noir
Daily Mail

Fiendishy clever
Financial Times

Triumphant conclusion to the trilogy. Only Ragnar Jónasson has rendered hindsight so heartbreaking
Sunday Times (on the Hidden Iceland trilogy)

A mist-shrouded blend of horror and psychological thriller . . . works in every way. The isolated village and the pre-smartphone 1980s setting create a sense of claustrophobia that combines with the villagers' secrecy and the hint of supernatural elements to infuse strong foreboding throughout what is ultimately revealed to be a story about trust
Booklist

The Icelandic king of crime
Göteborgsposten

Few among the country's authors match Jonasson in conveying insular abandonment . . . excellent
Toronto Star

Triumphant . . . Chilling, creepy, perceptive, almost unbearably tense
Ian Rankin

Is this the best crime writer in the world today? . . . He's truly a master of his genre
The Times Online

It is nothing less than a landmark in modern crime fiction
The Times

A world-class crime writer. One of the most astonishing plots of modern crime fiction. A triumphant conclusion to the trilogy [that] makes Iceland's pre-eminence in the crime genre even more marked
The Sunday Times
