The Island (Hidden Iceland 2)
Ragnar Jónasson

Elliðaey is a collection of isolated islands off the coast of Iceland. It is has a beautiful, unforgiving terrain and is an easy place to vanish.

The Island is the second thrilling book in Ragnar Jonasson's Hidden Iceland trilogy. This time Hulda is at the peak of her career and is sent to investigate what happened on Elliðaey after a group of friends visited but one failed to return.

Could this have links to the disappearance of a couple ten years previously out on the Westfjords? Is there a killer stalking these barren outposts?

Written with Ragnar's haunting and suspenseful prose The Island follows Hulda's journey to uncover the island's secrets and find the truth hidden in its darkest shadows.

​Praise

Shortlisted for the Capital Crime / Amazon Publishing Best Mystery Novel 2019

“[Ragnar Jónasson] demonstrates easy command of the police procedural format, and is well aware that he can take his time with the steady, methodical bringing together of key facts. Hulda Hermansdóttir is a striking character - both gloomy and tenacious - and she is a key reason for the success of this atmospheric novel.”
Barry Forshaw, EuroLit Network

"We heart the melancholy Hulda."
Sunday Times Crime Club

​"[Hulda Hermannsdóttir] is an excellent addition to the growing band of top-class woman detectives."
The Times

"His best book yet, an unflinching thriller that braids the past and the present, good and evil, love and loss. I can't wait for Hulda Hermannsdóttir's next case."
AJ Finn

"Prepare to be swept away to the beautiful yet unforgiving island of Ellidaey in Jónasson's latest Icelandic noir. Atmospheric and creepy, Jónasson successfully keeps you guessing till the bittersweet end."
