With a sharp tongue and a moral compass all of her own, Stella Blómkvist has a talent for attracting trouble and she’s as at home in the corridors of power as in the dark corners of Reykjavík’s underworld.
It’s New Year and Iceland is still reeling from the effects of the financial crash when a notorious financier is found beaten to death after a high-profile reception at the President’s residence.
The police are certain they have the killer – or do they? Determined to get to the truth, maverick lawyer Stella Blómkvist isn’t so sure.
A stripper disappears from one of city's seediest nightspots, and nobody but Stella seems interested in finding her. A drug mule cooling his heels in a prison cell refuses to speak to anyone but Stella – although she’s never heard of him. An old man makes a deathbed confession and request for Stella to find the family he lost long ago.
Stella Blómkvist delivers an explosive mix of murder, intrigue and surprise, and is one of Iceland's best-loved crime series.
The books that have appeared under Stella Blómkvist's name have been a bestselling series in Iceland since the first book appeared in the 1990s, and has attracted an international audience since the TV series starring Heiða Reed aired.
The books have been published under a pseudonym that still hasn’t been cracked. There's hardly a writer, journalist or other media figure in Iceland who hasn't at some point been under speculation as being the mysterious author of this hard-hitting series – and the name of at least one former Prime Minister has also been suggested.
The question of Stella Blómkvist’s identity is one that crops up regularly, but it looks like it’s going to remain a mystery…
