HAPPY PUBLICATION DAY to the Icelandic author Stella Blómkvist! 🎉🍻🇮🇸🔪

Murder Tide, third in the series featuring the fiery author of the same name, is out now. A hot book for the hot weather! And perfect for fans of Nordic noir.

And happy publication day also to translator Quentin Bates of Corylus Books. As Stella is an anonymous author this is the best we can do on the photo front!

Back to the book, then... It begins with a business man tied up to drown with the tide (see what they did there?) near the Grotti lighthouse in Reykjavik. A furious fisherman is first in the queue of suspects and wants Stella to defend him.

There's that and plenty more for the sharp witted lawyer to deal with such as a woman seeking long lost parents, and a deal to help the police catch a crimelord and put him away...

It's out now for Kindle and you can grab a copy here: https://amzn.to/3Gz5W18
