THE MIST
“Jónasson weaves his suspenseful tales together with remorseless logic up to a climax more nightmarish than the buildup.”–Kirkus Reviews, starred review
“Isolation and despair undo the characters in Jónasson’s exceptional third and final novel featuring Reykjavík Det. Insp. Hulda Hermannsdóttir (after 2019’s THE ISLAND).”–Publishers Weekly, starred review
“No one is who they seem to be in this fast-paced, character-rich thriller about murder and isolation during the brutal Icelandic winter. A series novel that works as a stand-alone, it will appeal to fans of Stieg Larsson, Deborah Crombie, and Michelle Sacks.”–Library Journal, starred review
