출판사 설명
The prison doors slam shut behind Agla, when her sentence ends, but her lover Sonja is not there to meet her. As a group of foreign businessmen tries to draw Agla into an ingenious fraud that stretches from Iceland around the world, Agla and her former nemesis, María find the stakes being raised at a terrifying speed. Ruthless drug baron Ingimar will stop at nothing to protect his empire, but he has no idea about the powder keg he is sitting on in his own home. At the same time, a deadly threat to Sonya and her family brings her from London back to Iceland, where she needs to settle scores with longstanding adversaries if she wants to stay alive…
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
At the start of the lively conclusion to Sigurdard ttir's sprawling trilogy (after 2018's Trap), Agla, a former high-level bank executive finishing up a prison sentence for financial misconduct, tries to kill herself rather than consider the numerous choices awaiting once she's eligible for parole. The unsuccessful suicide attempt lands Agla in the prison's high-security wing, where she gets a surprise visit from a representative of a major drinks manufacturer who offers her a reason to live. The company, concerned about the rise in the cost of aluminum used in their cans, wants Agla to use her financial connections to learn who's been removing large amounts of unregistered aluminum from circulation in recent years. After she's released, Agla joins former adversary Mar a, an irrepressible journalist, in an effort to uncover the culprit, an entrepreneur who has committed economic misdeeds and is prepared to go to great lengths to ensure his fortune remains intact. Sigurdard ttir prioritizes swift pacing over in-depth characterization. Fans already invested in this Nordic crime series will race through the pages.
