"USA Today"Arnaldur Indridason has proven himself to be a master of the mystery genre with his critically acclaimed Inspector Erlunder series, which has sold more than 7 million copies worldwide. Now, in "Outrage, "this superlative crime writer author has written his best book to date, with exceptional prose, heart pounding suspense, and a mystery that is not solved until the last page.

Arnaldur is fast becoming one of my favorite authors, he breaks from his normal and singles out the female detective and writes from her point of view how she handles her investigations keeping the reader in suspense till the end. I could not wait to read the next in the series.
