Hildur – Rämö Satu (2025)

"Hildur" - the raw atmosphere of Iceland that breathes on you from the very first touch of this novel's cover.
The horror that resonates in every word. Nordic noir at its best!

Hildur launches a series of detective stories set in remote Icelandic fjords, where everyone is trying to survive as best they can. This is also true for Hildur Rúnarsdóttir, who ventures to surf in the icy waters of the Atlantic to try to forget her traumatic childhood and the weight of the cases that occupy her as the head of the missing children department of the police in Ísafjörður.

Jakob Johanson, a Finnish police intern, arrives in Iceland to work alongside Hildur and attempt to escape his own complicated life back home. However, he soon realizes that the picturesque fjords also hide their dark sides in the form of marginalized people, exploiters, and power-hungry individuals living among them. Hildur and Jakob suddenly find themselves in a strange web of crimes... the fog shrouding secrets that have been hidden in darkness for decades begins to lift.
