| Description: |
If I die before I wake.. |
| Synopsis: |
The child started crying harder, trying desperately to stifle her sobs. This wasn't right. Why couldn't God just come and get her now, if He was so good? Why did she have to go down into that dark pit? She was afraid of the dark, and this was a bad place - her mother had told her so. The girl looked at the man and knew she was going down there whether she wanted to or not. A grisly murder is committed at a health resort situated in a recently renovated farmhouse, which turns out to be notorious for being haunted. Attorney Thora Gudmundsdottir is called upon by the owner of the resort - the prime suspect in the case - to represent him. Her investigations uncover some very disturbing occurrences at the farm decades earlier - things that have never before seen the light of day...MY SOUL TO TAKE is a chilling, dark and witty crime novel, and a welcome return for Thora, the heroine of the highly-acclaimed LAST RITUALS. 'Yrsa Sigurdardottir has arrived, fully formed, it seems, as something of a unique talent in the field...[She] matches Tess Gerritsen and Kathy Reichs in the bloodchiller stakes.'
