Acerca de este título

Agatha Christie meets Nordic noir in this “brilliant debut” (Louise Penny, #1 New York Times bestselling author) about diplomats stranded on a windswept Icelandic island with a murderer in their midst.

A remote Icelandic island. A diplomatic dinner party. A murderer in their midst.

When Kavita Banerjee, the deputy ambassador of Canada, dies suddenly at a dinner party attended by the great and the good from Icelandic business and politics, suspicion falls on everyone present, but particularly on the victim’s boss, Graeme Shearer, the Canadian ambassador.

Jane Shearer, Graeme’s long-suffering wife, is accustomed to cleaning up his messes. But now, saving her husband’s career—and her crumbling marriage—requires her to investigate her fellow dinner guests. Uncovering corruption and murder is a dangerous job, but Jane knows better than most what desperate people will do to protect their secrets.

Reseñas de la crítica

Death on the Island is a humdinger of a debut novel. So many people could be guilty for so many reasons, so many big fish in a little pond are hiding secrets of nastiness that may not necessarily include murder, so much deviousness.”
The Winnipeg Free Press
“Eliza Reid has drawn on her experience as Iceland’s former First Lady to craft a classic murder mystery set on the windswept Westman Islands. The ensemble cast is filled with quirky, complex, and believable characters who are all dealing with their own baggage, along with a dead body or two. And the island itself is a mesmerizing setting made even more sinister by the lashing storm. Whether you have the self-control to savour this tale, or you read it in one desperate binge, as I did, Death on the Island is the debut everyone will be talking about.”
TERRY FALLIS, two-time winner of the Stephen Leacock Medal for Humour
“Eliza Reid’s take on a locked room mystery is an island off the coast of Iceland during a perfect storm - for the perfect murder. Among the suspects are an ambitious chef, an award-winning writer, an Ambassador and a captain of industry. Skullduggery in high places! A most enthralling, entertaining, and intriguing mystery.”
LIZ NUGENT, internationally bestselling author of Strange Sally Diamond
“A classic murder mystery set against a brooding landscape. Full of twists and turns that will keep you guessing right to the very last page.”
WILL FERGUSON, Scotiabank Giller Prize-winning author of 419
“With its twisty Golden Age plot and a fascinating Nordic Noir setting, this novel is perfect for lovers of each.”
ANN CLEEVES, New York Times bestselling author
“An addictive and edgy murder mystery with wonderfully quirky characters and razor-sharp dialogue. You’ll turn the pages faster than you ever thought possible.”
JANN ARDEN, bestselling author of The Bittlemores
“I loved this book. Eliza Reid is so assured in her plot and characters that it’s hard to believe this is her first novel. Death on the Island is compulsive and propulsive reading. Not only wonderfully evocative of a little-known area of Iceland, it is also surprising, with twists even a seasoned crime reader won’t see coming. A brilliant debut, that promises more to come.”
LOUISE PENNY, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Grey Wolf
“An intriguing mystery, an exotic setting, and a Christie vibe—what’s not to love?”
SHARI LAPENA, #1 Globe & Mail bestselling author of What Have You Done
