A wealthy family closes ranks to keep skeletons hidden in their closets – while the Reykjavík police struggle with a spate of fresh attacks as an old killer resurfaces. @solveigpals is one of Iceland's best-loved crimewriters – now in English.

Marking time in a dead-end job in rural Iceland, Guðgeir's detective instincts are triggered when he hears about a foreign woman who arrived in this tight-knit community – and then disappeared as suddenly as she had appeared.

It’s only after Kristín Kjarr’s suicide that the pieces begin to fall into place and detective Guðgeir takes a deeper interest in why she had found herself in prison.
Sólveig Pálsdóttir is one of Iceland's best-loved crime writers – with good reason...

A dose of ice-cool Nordic Noir to take the edge off a hot summer? Sólveig Pálsdóttir is one of Iceland's best-loved crimewriters, always has something to say.
And there's a new Guðgeir novel in the works for early next year...

We're deep in edits of Ice Bears, the fifth crime story from @solveigpals – and it's not going to disappoint her readers. In the meantime, here's a reminder of the creepiness last year's Shrouded.

We're at work on the latest from the brilliant Sólveig Pálsdóttir – working title, Ice Bears. Sólveig's readers won't be disappointed – and if you're new to this author, there's time to catch up with her backlist.
Look out for Ice Bears later this year...!

We're at work on the next novel from @solveigpals – working title: Ice Bears. It's her trademark slow-burn tension building, and it's not going to disappoint...
There's time to get to know her backlist before the new book appears next summer!

We're looking forward to an early peek at the new manuscript from @solveigpals and trying not to be impatient.
So look out for Sólveig #5 in English next year – and check out the four Guðgeir & Elsa Guðrún novels already in translation...
