When a celebrated government official is found dead after his surprise birthday party, a young police officer uncovers a terrifying world of financial crime, sinister cults, and disturbing secret lives. Icelandic politician Katrín Júlíusdóttir's award-winning debut – first in a breathtaking series – is a breathtaking political thriller from one of Iceland's most exciting new voices.
Winner of the Blackbird Award for Best Icelandic Crime Debut, Dead Sweet is a masterful narrative that skillfully weaves together intense family dynamics, dark pasts, and criminal endeavors. Lilja Sigurðardóttir praises it as "a breathtaking political thriller from one of Iceland's most exciting new voices."
A murder is just the beginning. When Óttar Karlsson, a wealthy and respected government official and businessman, is found murdered after failing to turn up at his own surprise birthday party, the police are at a loss. It isn't until young police officer Sigurdís finds a well-hidden safe in his impersonal luxury apartment that clues start emerging.
As Óttar's shady business dealings become clear, a second, unexpected line of enquiry emerges when Sigurdís finds a US phone number in the safe, along with papers showing regular money transfers to an American account. Following the trail to Minnesota, trauma rooted in Sigurdís's own childhood threatens to resurface, and the investigation strikes chillingly close to home.
Dead Sweet is an atmospheric, deeply unsettling, and full of breakneck twists and turns debut thriller that uncovers a terrifying world of financial crime, sinister cults, and disturbing secret lives. It kicks off an addictive, mind-blowing new series.
Exceptional and realistic characters, Dead Sweet hooks you in from the very first page and keeps you hooked until the shocking conclusion. This is a must-read for fans of political thrillers and crime fiction.
