The first in the electrifying new Forbidden Iceland series,
The Creak on the Stairs is an exquisitely written, claustrophobic and
chillingly atmospheric debut thriller by one of Iceland’s most exciting new
talents
When the body of a woman is discovered at a lighthouse in
the Icelandic town of Akranes, it soon becomes clear that she’s no stranger to
the area.
Chief Investigating Officer Elma, who has returned to
Akranes following a failed relationship, and her colleagues Sævar and Hörður,
commence an uneasy investigation, which uncovers a shocking secret in the dead
woman’s past that continues to reverberate in the present day…
But as Elma and her team make a series of discoveries, they
bring to light a host of long-hidden crimes that shake the entire community.
Sifting through the rubble of the townspeople’s shattered memories, they have
to dodge increasingly serious threats, and find justice … before it’s too late.
About the Author
Born in Akranes in 1988, Eva moved to Trondheim, Norway to
study my MSc in Globalisation when she was 25. After moving back home having
completed her MSc, she knew it was time to start working on her novel. Eva has
wanted to write books since she was 15 years old, having won a short story
contest in Iceland.
Eva worked as a stewardess to make ends meet while she wrote
her first novel. The book went on to win the Blackbird Award and became an
Icelandic bestseller. Eva now lives with her husband and three children in
Reykjavík, staying at home with her youngest until she begins Kindergarten.
