I hadn't read anything by Michael Ridpath before, but having been to Iceland I was interested to read a book set there. Once I had got used to the strangely spelt place names it is a very good read.
Magnus, the main character, has recently returned to Iceland after being in Boston for some time working in the Police there.
A documentary about Gudrid the Wanderer is being filmed and the crew come across a dead body. At first it appears to be a random killing of a tourist, something unheard of in Iceland. But, after investigation, there are links to the documentary being filmed. Magnus has to find out why people are holding back on telling the truth, is it because they know who murdered the woman or is it something else?
A good read.
