The legacy / Yrsa Sigurdardottir ; translated from the Icelandic by Victoria Cribb.

Sigurdardottir, Yrsa (author.). Cribb, Victoria, (translator.).

Summary:

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, 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 traumatised young people. Freyja distrusts the police in general and Huldar in particular but she's determined to keep little Margret safe. And when more people die - their murders heralded by strange messages, texts, and strings of numbers - they will have to work together to crack the riddle before they become targets themselves.
