Gunnhidur Gisladottir is a sergeant with the police dept.
In the book she is called to a crime scene. At the scene,
she is faced with the victim tied to a bed in a very
expensive hotel. With no evidence left behind, she is
faced with investigating a case with no beginning.
CHILLED TO THE BONE did not hold my attention at all. I
do enjoy a good mystery, but this one just didn't cut it
for
me. It could be because this book is based in Iceland.
I found myself putting this book down on several
occasions,
not really wanting to pick it up again. I did continue
reading it, but did not enjoy it at all.
I am sure that some people would enjoy it. After reading
CHILLED TO THE BONE, I did look at comments made by other
media
people. They all seemed to enjoy the book, just not for
me.
When Sergeant Gunnhildur Gísladóttir of the local police
force is called in to investigate the death of a man found
tied to a bed in one of Reykjavík's nicest hotels, she
finds no sign of criminal activity but suspects there may
be more to the case than meets the eye. Could the death of
the shipowner be related to a local gangster’s recent
return to Iceland after many years abroad?
What begins as a straightforward case for Gunnhildur soon
explodes into a dangerous investigation, involving a
discreet bondage society that ruthless men will go to
violent extremes to keep secret.
