Stop Dead

Katrín Júlíusdóttir

Icelandic detective-in-training Sigurdís is studying in the US, but her plans are thrown into disarray when she discovers that her boss and mentor, Gar-ar, has been fired from Reykjavík CID over his investigation into Sigurdís's father's death. Returning to Iceland to deal with the fallout, Sigurdís finds herself pulled into a disturbing case: controversial TV personality Olga Einars has been stabbed to death during the Reykjavík Marathon. Struggling to locate a runner #1407, who was seen near the murdered woman during the race, the police soon discover that several masked runners were wearing the same number. As the mystery deepens, Sigurdís and her fellow detective Unnar soon learn exactly how unpopular Olga was - not just with the interviewees she humiliated on live TV, but with her own son, her business partner, a widower who insists that she had a hand in his wife's death, and her ex-husband, who died in suspicious circumstances.
