Snare (Reykjavik Noir trilogy Book 1)

First in the Reykjavik Noir Trilogy After a messy divorce, attractive young mother Sonia is struggling to provide for herself and keep custody of her son. With her back to the wall, she resorts to smuggling cocaine into Iceland, and finds herself caught up in a ruthless criminal world. As she desperately looks for a way out of trouble, she must pit her wits against her nemesis, Bragi, a customs officer, whose years of experience frustrate her new and evermore daring strategies. Things become even more complicated when Sonia embarks on a relationship with a woman, Agla. Once a high-level bank executive, Agla is currently being prosecuted in the aftermath of the Icelandic financial crash. Set in a ReykjavÃk still covered in the dust of the EyjafjallajÃ¶kull volcanic eruption, and with a dark, fast-paced and chilling plot and intriguing characters, SnareÂ is an outstandingly original and sexy Nordic crime thriller, from one of the most exciting new names in crime fiction. 'A tense thriller with a highly unusual plot and interesting characters' Times 'This first novel of a planned trilogy is stylish, taut and compelling and a film adaptation is in the pipeline. With characters you can't help sympathising with against your better judgement, Sigurdardottir takes the reader on a breathtaking ride' Daily Express 'SnareÂ will ensnare you' Marie Claire A taut, gritty, thoroughly absorbing journey into Reykjavik's underworld' Christine Tran, Booklist 'Lilja Sigurdardottir delivers a diabolically efficient thriller with an ultrarealistic plot â€¦ We cannot wait for Sonja's next adventure' L'Express 'A smart, ambitious, and hugely satisfying thriller. Striking in its originality and written with all the style and poise of an old hand. Lilja is destined for Scandi super stardom' Eva Dolan 'For a small island, Iceland produces some extraordinary writers, and Lilja is one of the best. SnareÂ is an enthralling tale of love and crime that stays with you long after you have turned the last page' Michael Ridpath 'Zips along, with tension building and building â€¦ thoroughly recommended' James Oswald 'Crisp, assured and nail-bitingly tense, SnareÂ is an exceptional read, cementing Lilja's place as one of Iceland's most outstanding crime writers' Yrsa Sigurdardottir 'Clear your diary. As soon as you begin reading Snare, you won't be able to stop until the final page' Michael Wood 'SnareÂ is a great read and the finale is both shocking and unexpected â€¦ a Wizard-of-Oz ending, without the laughs. Terrific and original stuff' Max Easterman, European Literature Network
