The murder was meant as a punishment - but what sin could justify the method? The only person who might have answers is the victim's seven-year-old daughter, who was found hiding in the room where her mother died. And she's not talking. Newly promoted, out of his depth, Detective Huldar turns to Freyja and the Children's House for their expertise with traumatized young people. Freyja, who distrusts the police in general and Huldar in particular, isn't best pleased. But she's determined to keep little Margret safe. It may prove tricky. The killer is leaving them strange clues: warnings in text messages, sums scribbled on bits of paper, numbers broadcast on the radio. He's telling a dark and secret story - but how can they crack the code? And if they do, will they be next?… (més)

Quite a frustrating book in many ways.

It felt unnecessarily violent at times, which almost made me put the book down.

The main characters, Huldar the police officer and Freyja the child psychologist are not particularly endearing, they weren't fleshed out enough to seem anything more than 2-dimensional, despite various aspects of their lives being drawn out in some rather long and boring passages. They just failed to come to life for me and the reveal at the end seemed pretty weak and rushed, making me think I should have skipped to the end a lot earlier. ( )

Well plotted and well written. ( )

Enjoyed. Shows how police or all of us should not make assumptions and need to ask follow up questions. ( )

The Legacy is the first book in the Children's House series and it's the first book I've read by Yrsa Sigurðardóttir. I've actually read a couple of more books by Sigurðardóttir since I finished this book and I find her books really good. One thing I loved about this book (and the rest I've read by the author) is that its setting is on Iceland. Another thing I liked is the main characters psychologist Freyja and police officer Huldar who have to work together solving a murder case where a child is the only witness. The murder was quite brutal and little Margret could also be in danger. To make matter worse, Freyja and Huldar have a “kind of” past and they are not pleased that they have to work together, especially not Freyja. But, for the sake of the child and to solve the case must they try to work together to find out why someone would want to kill the woman.

I found the Legacy to be a very interesting book, especially that the answers were in the past. I thought it was a great change that for once read about a child psychologist and Freyja's frosty relationship with Huldar was amusing, which was needed in an otherwise very dark book. I especially liked the last part of the book when I started to realize the truth and when everything started to get a bit more dangerous for Huldar. The Legacy is a great crime novel and I'm looking forward to reading the next book in the series.

Thanks HarperCollins Nordic for the review copy! ( )

This took me too long to read. Mostly because I got interrupted by other books which were not renewable at my local library. This is a GOOD BOOK!!!! There’s lots of twists and turns. ( )
