Book Description:
Aldis took a job in a juvenile detention centre in rural Iceland because she would have done anything to get away from home. She soon realises it was a terrible decision. The boys are unruly, the owners are unpleasant, and there are strange noises at night. And then two of the inmates die...
Decades later, single father Odinn is looking into alleged abuse at the centre. The more he finds out, though, the more it seems the odd events of the 1970s are linked to the accident that killed his ex-wife. Was her death something more sinister?
The things you should be scared of are not the ones you expect.

Olisi mukava tietää, mistä löysit kirjan.

I took the book today from Columbus on my way back from Uutela, I couldn't resist as I've liked two of Yrsa's other novels ;) The beginning seems interesting but let's see if I'll have the time to read the book or if I'll take it to a BC meet-up.. Thanks for the book, hippolein!

Since the book is on sakirmo's wishlist and since I wouldn't probably read it in near future (= during the next few years), it's time to let it go :) Yrsa Sigurðardóttir is a good writer though ;)

Enjoy reading!

The book is in Turku now, thank you!!

Not as gripping as many of her other books, but still a pretty good read.

At the meet-up

The book is here, thank you sakirmo.

Believe me, I tried. Had to give up, this is not my cup of tea.

I left the book on a armchair near the ticket office, and it was gone when I got back from the exhibition (EXPLORATIONS, Lars Göran Johnsson's Collection). Looking forward to a journal entry...
