Mystery Police Procedural
An ancient saga. A modern legend. A secret worth killing for. Amid Iceland’s wild, volcanic landscape, rumors swirl of an
ancient manuscript inscribed with a long-lost saga about a
ring of terrible power. A rediscovered saga alone would be
worth a fortune, but, if the rumors can be believed, there
is something much more valuable about this one. Something
worth killing for. Something that will cost Professor Agnar
Haraldsson his life. Untangling murder from myth is Iceland-born, Boston-raised
detective Magnus Jonson. On loan to the Icelandic Police
Force for his own protection after a Massachusetts drug
cartel puts a bounty on his head, Magnus is eager work the
Haraldsson case, a rare lethal crime for the island nation.
But his unorthodox investigative technique soon gets him
into trouble with his more traditional superiors,
intensifying his mixed feelings about returning to his
native country—a place of tangled family loyalties haunted
by his father’s unsolved murder—after nearly two decades.
And as Magnus is about to discover, the past casts a long
shadow in Iceland.
