Detective Konrad

Indridason Arnaldur: The Quiet Mother /
B

The Quiet Mother

'Arnaldur Indridason is a literary phenomenon - and it's easy to see why' HARLAN COBEN 'Indridason writes crime novels that are as chilling as the landscape where they're set' ANN CLEEVES 'The undisputed King of the Icelandic Thriller' Guardian A lifetime of secrets. A murder that will expose the truth. A woman is found murdered in her Reykjavík home, her apartment ransacked. On her desk lies a note with retired detective Konrad's phone number. Days earlier, she had begged him to find the child she gave up nearly fifty years ago. But Konrad, reluctant to reopen old wounds, turned her away. Now, haunted by guilt, he vows to uncover the truth - for her and for himself. As Konrad digs into the woman's past, he is drawn into a web of secrets, lies and betrayal. Each revelation points to a hidden life that connects her death to a decades-old murder - and to shadows from Konrad's own family history. The Quiet Mother is a masterful blend of human tragedy and relentless suspense, where every discovery comes at a cost. Arnaldur Indridason once again proves why he is the voice of Nordic Noir, delivering a harrowing tale of guilt and redemption. 'One of the greats of modern crime fiction' Sunday Times 'Arnaldur Indridason is indeed an expert storyteller... The Quiet Mother is yet another feather in the author's cap ... a work of genius' Steinthor Gudbjartsson, Iceland Monitor Daily *OVER 20 MILLION BOOKS SOLD WORLDWIDE*

'One of the greats of modern crime fiction' Sunday Times When a young woman known for drug smuggling goes missing, her elderly grandparents have no choice but to call the retired Detective Konrád. Still looking for his own father's murderer, Konrád agrees to investigate the case. But digging into the past reveals more than he set out to discover, and a strange connection to a little girl who drowned in the Reykjavík city pond decades ago recaptures everyone's attention. A brilliant, chilling tale of broken dreams and children who have nowhere to turn. 'The undisputed king of the Icelandic thriller' Guardian 'An international literary phenomenon - and it's easy to see why. His novels are gripping, authentic, haunting, and lyrical' Harlan Coben

'Tense, chilling' MARIANA ENRIQUEZ, author of Our Share of Night'Lays bare intergenerational horror, feminine rage and the taking back of power' STYLIST'Incredible' FINANCIAL TIMESThe house breathes. The house contains bodies and secrets. The house is visited by ghosts, by angels that line the roof like insects, and by saints that burn the bedsheets with their haloes. It was built by a small-time hustler as a means of controlling his wife, and even after so many years, their daughter and her granddaughter can't leave. They may be witches or they may just be angry, but when the mysterious disappearance of a young boy draws unwanted attention, the two isolated women, already subjects of public scorn, combine forces with the spirits that haunt them in pursuit of something that resembles justice.

'A deliciously dark, twisty turny thriller with characters who leap off the page' John Marrs

The Serial Killer Support Network

A master forger. A hidden fortune. A dangerous game of cat and mouse... In post-war Flanders, Adelais de Wolf's family is slowly, inexplicably, falling apart: her mother evermore lost to religious devotion, her father to alcohol. But with the death of a beloved uncle, Adelais finds herself in receipt of an unexpected legacy: a shuttered house in a rundown district and its contents - contents that hold the promise of independence and wealth. All that is required is application, nerve, and a willingness to break the law. Adelais stifles her doubts and her fortunes are transformed. But with her rise comes complications: her victimless crimes may not be as victimless as she supposed. Nor has she counted on the singular fanaticism of Major de Smet of the Federal Gendarmerie, a brutal detective who never forgives and never forgets. Embroiled in a game that has gone on too long, will Adelais find the cost of her fortunes too high?
