Publisher Description: "Top notch crime fiction."</p>--<em>Boston Globe</em><em></em></p><em> </em></p><em>American readers first met Icelandic lawyer and investigator </em>Thóra Gudmundsdóttir in <em>Last Rituals. </em>In <em>My Soul to Take, </em>internationally acclaimed author Yrsa Sigurdardóttir plunges her intrepid heroine into even graver peril, in a riveting thriller set against the harsh landscape of <em>Smila's Sense of Snow</em> territory. A darkly witty and continually surprising suspense tale that places Yrsa Sigurdardóttir firmly in the ranks of Sue Grafton, Tess Gerritsen, Faye Kellerman and other top mystery writers, <em>My Soul to Take</em> is ingenious Scandinavian noir on a par with the works of Henning Mankell and Arnaldur Indridason. Stieg Larsson (<em>The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo</em>) fans should also take note.</p>
