Icelandic publisher Forlagið just acquired the rights to Satu Rämö’s RÓSA & BJÖRK (WSOY 2023), after the Icelandic edition of the first book in the Hildur series had the best possible homecoming a few weeks ago, entering the bestseller list at #1 right upon publication.
“Satu Ramö continues the series about Hildur in top form with Rósa & Björk. She has an incredible ability to transport you to the harsh and beautiful landscapes of the Westfjords while also managing to tackle issues like small-town politics, corruption, xenophobia, and a culture of silence with a lot of insight and finesse. The intricate plotting will keep you at the edge of your seat but getting to know the wonderful characters better is equally rewarding. We can’t wait to continue solving past and present mysteries with Hildur, Jakob and their colleagues and friends. Her first book was welcomed with open arms by readers in her adopted home country and it is clear to us that Satu is ready to claim her place among the biggest names in Icelandic crime fiction.” – Elín Edda Pálsdóttir, Acquisitions editor, Forlagið
