Critics Review
“As the action builds to a thoughtful and satisfying resolution, Ould plants the seeds of the conclusion to his Faroes trilogy, which fans will eagerly anticipate.” - Publisher’s Weekly Starred Review “An absorbing literary procedural for readers who prize an exotic sense of place.” - Booklist “Ould’s strange, remote setting and the even stranger people make for an intriguing read, especially combined with a hero who is almost as prickly as his forefathers and yet manages to solve even the most complex crimes.” - Library Journal “Masterful…a thoroughly fun read with an unusual setting, great dialogue, excellent major and minor characters and a captivating storyline. Highly recommended.” - Bookgasm “an interesting mystery on its own merits. The background of the Faroes is an added bonus, giving it a unique flavor. I definitely recommend it.” - The Soap Boxers “A tense thriller….a particularly delightful read for readers who crave for stories similar to those of Henning Mankell and Elizabeth George.” - Mystery Tribune “a commanding, almost otherworldly, setting, and the author certainly knows how to bring it to life” Kittling Books “A subtle and satisfying read; absolutely pick this one up for the fascinating weave of multiple storylines and bleak atmosphere - another must-read in a brilliant series” The Crime Review
