Review: WHERE THE SHADOWS LIE by Michael Ridpath (Fire & Ice #1)


5 Stars

WHERE THE SHADOWS LIE is Book 1 in Michael Ridpath's Icelandic crime thriller FIRE AND ICE series. Set against the stunning scenery of Iceland, this novel also hinges on protagonist Magnus Jonsson's (in Iceland, Magnus Ragnarsson) life in Boston, where his father had been a professor. As a Boston homicide detective, Magnus is seconded to the Reykjavik Police for a two-year term after coincidentally uncovering police corruption in Boston. 

Magnus' first Icelandic investigation involves a professor at the University of Iceland, a long-lost Saga, and Lord of the Rings aficionados.
