  First released in 2006, published by the Icelandic writer Yrsa Sigurdardottir, and interpreted into English in 2009, this is the second trip for Thora Gudmunsdottir, the author's direct character in her first grownup novel, 'Last Rituals'. The actual plot is placed several moths following the witchcraft of the initial story, and picks up on the particular relationships set up in the very first book. Matthew the German safety expert seems again, just like Thora's children and her uncomfortable secretary, Accogliente.
  
  The structure with the book is actually Prologue (set in February 1945), Epilogue (24th June 2006), along with twelve times in June '06 getting back together the main body of the novel. The story worries 'supernatural' goings-on at a new 'new-age' hotel in North Western Iceland, on the Snaefells peninsula.
  
  Thora is actually invited by the actual proprietor of a new motel to look at the possibility of some economic compensation in the vendors of the land on that the business may be built - this due to the sighting associated with ghosts in the property and the resulting impact on revenue. The consequence on the bottom series might be really real in relation to the resort's main customers being right now there to investigate New-Age treatments, attend séances etc - both guests and also staff therefore being especially 'sensitive' to issues supernatural.
  
  Thora comes to the hotel to satisfy the owner, Jonas, as well as the first thing that occurs is that the (lady) architect of your proposed motel extension will be murdered, on the nearby coastline, in the evening half-light, inside the fog. The particular architect has been invited by text (sent from Jonas' mobile phone) to fulfill on the shoreline path. The woman's body is found the next morning floating in the shallows among the littoral seaweed, simply by her enthusiast (a local player with an unsatisfied marriage, away checking on the neighborhood eider colony). The picture is a perverted form of a pre-Raphaelite Ophelia - though the following upside-down with her encounter unrecognizable thanks to the repetitive administration of a giant rock.
  
  Go into the police - who instantly focus on Jonas since chief believe, and who in turn names Thora as his solicitor.
  
  The night time of the killing there'd already been a séance in the hotel, and also there'd simply been some people resident at that time. All very Agatha Christie come to think of it: there exists a retired mature politician; a wildlife photographer using a professional secret; a competitive kayaker; an older Japanese and his son; a man in the wheelchair, handicapped and with the hideously scarred, hooded encounter; and various personnel including services staff drawn from the local community, along with 'specialists' contracted in who can see auras, contact spirits, give massages and operate sex-therapy and other 'healing' training courses - all part of the hotel's 'therapies'. Whodunit?!
  
  The story concerns supernatural goings-on at a new new-age hotel in North West Iceland, on the Snaefells peninsula. For more information click here.
