## Description

'A tsunami of a thriller' - Amazon reviewer, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'Another great read from Quentin Bates. For the second time in the series I found myself rooting for the 'bad guy'!' - Amazon reviewer, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ --------------- Reykjavík detective Gunnhildur 'Gunna' Gísladóttir does not believe in ghosts. But when her team member Helgi swears he's seen a man who was declared dead fifteen years ago, she reluctantly gives him some unofficial leeway to look into it. Has the not-so-dead man returned from the grave to settle old scores, or has he just decided to take a last look around his old haunts? Either way, there are people who have nursed grudges for years, hoping for a reckoning one day. Even the rumour of his being alive and kicking is enough to spark a storm of fury and revenge, with Gunna and Helgi caught in the middle . . . The seventh dark and atmospheric thriller in Quentin Bates's Icelandic crime series. A tense page-turner perfect for fans of Jo Nesbo, Henning Mankell and Søren Sveistrup's The Chestnut Man. --------------- Readers and reviewers are raving about Cold Malice!

I had to remind myself to breathe' - Katerina Diamond, author of The Teacher 'Just keeps getting better and better' - Amazon reviewer, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'Quality mystery fiction . . . the Gunnhildur novels are just too good'- Amazon reviewer, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'Absorbing read. I did not want to put this book down' - Amazon reviewer, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'Another winner . . . he has a knack for being able to seamlessly weave in the crime story issues facing mankind everywhere'- Amazon reviewer, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'Another great entry in the Gunnhildur series!'- Amazon reviewer, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
