"Iceland's Queen of Crime juggles two sets of crimes in two time frames to produce a slow-burning, bone-chilling tale." — Kirkus Reviews
Aldis hates her job working in a juvenile detention center in rural Iceland. The boys are difficult, the owners are unpleasant, and there are mysterious noises at night. And then two of the boys go astray . . .
Decades later, single father Odinn is looking into alleged abuse at the center. The more he finds out, though, the more it seems the odd events of the 1970s are linked to the accident that killed his ex-wife. Was her death something more sinister?
Yrsa Sigurdardottir is a huge European bestseller both with her crime and horror novels. You might want to sleep with the light on after reading The Undesired . . .
"Reading this fine, brooding and atmospheric piece as the wind howls through the eaves makes for as good an evening of solitude as one could wish for. . . . Great reading for those who like to be frightened slowly by the darker corners of the human psyche." —BookReporter.com
"Will give you goosebumps and make you think twice about turning out the light. . . . This unnerving, atmospheric Icelandic novel completely got under my skin, from its in-your-face opening to its utterly chilling final sentence. . . . The perfect winter thriller." —Crime by the Book
