'Seven Graves, One Winter; has to be one of the best Scandie Crime thrillers that I have read. The mix of Greenland politics and murder kept my interest. Added to that, we have Maratse, a very complex character, Whose back story, in itself, proves to be most intriguing. The plot is clever and the last few chapters exciting.'
'The story is gripping and well thought out. The characters believable and the description of the locations and events are brilliant. This book left me eager to read more by the same author.'
'This is just a great book to read. Very good story and a great ending. Must read another of this series.'
'Absorbing and believable. What more could you want?'
'Recommend to everyone that likes a fast paced adventure, great characters, wonderful descriptions of the scenery. Want to read more books of the same quality.'
'I would recommend this book as a very enjoyable read. Very informative about life in the northern wastes, and difficult to work out who the exact villains are, but the way of life and the difficulties of living in the dark each and every 24 hours are perhaps the most rewarding.'

- The Ice Star
In the Shadow of the Mountain
