This book is quite good. Library Journal and Publishers Weekly both gave the book a starred review. The book is the first in the author's Dark Island series. It was first published in Iceland in 2015, but not translated into English until 2015. This U.S. edition was not published until 2017. From what I can ascertain, Ragnar Jónasson has written four other books in his Dark Island series: Nightblind, Blackout, Rupture, and Whiteout. Nightblind is scheduled to be published in the U.S. in December 2017, but the U.S. publication dates for the other three books are currently unknown. The author has another series going, the Hulda series. This series revolves around female detective Hulda (literally meaning “hidden woman”) and is set in Reykjavik, the Icelandic highlands, in an isolated fjord, and on one of Iceland’s most picturesque and inaccessible islands. Jónasson has written two books in this series: Dimma ("Darkness") and Drungi ("The Island"). The former was published in Iceland in 2015 and is scheduled for publication in the U.S. in 2018. The latter was published in Iceland in 2016 and is scheduled for publication in the U.S. in 2019.
