What you need to know before your trail

One winter evening bestselling crime author, Elín S. Jónsdóttir goes missing.

There are no clues to her disappearance and it is up to young detective, Helgi, to crack the case before it’s leaked to the press.

As he interviews the people closest to her – a publisher, an accountant, a retired judge – he realises that Elín’s life wasn’t what it seemed. In fact, her past is even stranger than her stories.

As the case of the missing crime writer becomes more mysterious by the hour, Helgi must uncover the secrets of a very unexpected life . . .

Reykjavík

The city that Ragnar makes his own. It feels like toytown at times and even looks like it with the coloured houses and tiny streets. What is lovely is the coloured buildings and shops and you can see the bookshop in the novel in technicolour!

“Reykjavík is the capital and largest city of Iceland, known as the world’s northernmost capital of a sovereign state, boasting a vibrant cultural scene and a unique blend of urban charm and natural beauty.”
