Reviews
Praise for The Island : "Jónasson, who could give lessons on how to sustain a chilly atmosphere, sprinkles just enough hints of ghostly agents to make you wonder if he''s going to fall back on a paranormal resolution to the mystery. Don''t worry: The solution is both uncanny and all-too-human." -- Kirkus Reviews "Dark, chilling and utterly gripping, The Island is Nordic noir at its best, and is destined to become a classic of the genre. I couldn''t put it down. I can''t wait to read the rest of the Hulda series!" --Shari Lapena, New York Times bestselling author of An Unwanted Guest Praise for The Darkness : "Jónasson pulls no punches as this grim tale builds to its stunning conclusion, one of the more remarkable in recent crime fiction. Fans of uncompromising plotting will be satisfied." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review and book of the week) " The Darkness melds an insightful character study with a solid plot for an outstanding novel." -- Washington Post "A complex, fascinating mix of Icelandic community and alienation, atmospheric tension, and timely issues (immigrant exploitation and vigilante justice), Jónasson''s latest series is another must-read for crime fans who follow the work of Arnaldur Indridason and Yrsa Sigurdardóttir." -- Booklist (starred review) "As an older female detective, Hulda is a refreshing addition to the genre. This intricate and timely work explores the dehumanization of refugees, sexism in the police force, aging, and more without overwhelming the core mystery. VERDICT: This heart-pounding tale will appeal to fans of Camilla Lackberg and those looking for a darker, more modern Agatha Christie-type mystery." -- Library Journal "If you think you know how frigid Iceland can be, this blistering stand-alone from Jónasson has news for you: It''s much, much colder than you''ve ever imagined. Warmly recommended for hot summer nights." -- Kirkus Reviews " The Darkness is a bullet train of a novel, at once blazingly contemporary and Agatha-Christie old-fashioned. With prose as pure and crisp as Reykjavik snowcrust, Ragnar Jónasson navigates the treacherous narrative with a veteran''s hand. I reached the end with adrenalized anticipation, the final twist hitting me in the face. I dare you not to be shocked." --GREGG HURWITZ, New York Times bestselling author "I''m absolutely LOVING Ragnar Jonasson''s The Darkness . In all honesty, I might even be loving this new series more than I loved the launch of Ragnar''s Dark Iceland series, Snowblind-- and that''s saying a lot .... If you love atmospheric, slow-burning yet totally addictive police procedurals, you have to add this book to your TBR. The Darkness is downright fantastic." --Crime by the Book blog "I thoroughly enjoyed this author''s writing style and emphasis on the atmosphere of the storyline and its characters. He is quite the master of creating such a vivid setting in which you as a reader almost feel like you are transported into the story. I am definitely looking forward to Ragnar''s next book in this series! I highly recommend this read to fans of suspense and thrillers..." --The Reading Beauty Blog "[I] was gripped from the start of this brilliantly told story. And left wide-eyed with shock at the ending" --FIONA BARTON, bestselling author of The Widow "... magnificently dark and twisted! That ending - blimey!" --C.J. TUDOR, bestselling author of The Chalk Man "The Darkness is a true masterpiece of a crime novel, introducing an original protagonist, a plot full of twists and turns and an ending that leaves you gasping for air." --YRSA SIGURDARDOTTIR, bestselling Icelandic crime writer "The Darkness is Ragnar Jonasson at the top of his game - deft plotting, a great central character and a story as chilling as the Icelandic winter. I couldn''t put it down." --WILLIAM RYAN, bestselling author of The Holy Thief "Just finished TheDarkness ... oh WOW!" --HELEN CALLAGHAN, bestselling author of Dear Amy, Praise for The Darkness : "Jónasson pulls no punches as this grim tale builds to its stunning conclusion, one of the more remarkable in recent crime fiction.
