---------------

When a wealthy shipping magnate is found dead in one of Reykjavik's smartest hotels, Sergeant Gunnhildur 'Gunna' Gísladóttir sees no evidence of foul play, despite the fact his body was tied to the bed . . .

However, as she investigates the victim's untimely demise, she stumbles across a secret bondage society whose members are being systematically exploited and blackmailed.

But how does this connect to a local gangster recently returned to Iceland after many years abroad, and the loss of a government laptop containing sensitive data about various members of the ruling party?

What begins as a straightforward case for Gunnhildur soon explodes into a dangerous investigation, uncovering secrets that ruthless, powerful men are ready to go to violent lengths to keep.

The third dark and atmospheric thriller in Quentin Bates's series of Icelandic crime thrillers. A chilling page-turner perfect for fans of Jo Nesbo, Henning Mankell and Søren Sveistrup's The Chestnut Man.
