Unexpected Wrap-Up to the Trilogy

Cage by Lilja Sigurðardóttir

June 9, 2020 by ASKReviews Leave a Comment

Best for: Those who like to follow through with a series.

Best for: Those who enjoy crime novels of the Icelandic variety. Those who appreciate when the main character is both a) not a man and b) not straight.
