An old sanatorium. A terrifying murder. Six suspects and a case that never closed . . .

Akureyri, Northern Iceland, 1983.

High up in the most northern part of Iceland stands The Akureyri Sanatorium. Once a hospital dedicated to treating tuberculosis, it now sits haunted by the ghosts of its past.

One wing of the hospital remains open and houses six employees: the caretaker, two doctors, two nurses and a young research assistant.

Despite the wards closing decades ago they remain at the hospital to conduct research. But the cold corridors, draughty windows and echoey halls are constant reminders of the building’s dark history.

When one of the nurses, Yrsa, is found brutally murdered, they discover that death has never left this place – and neither did its secrets. None can escape this terrifying legacy.

Despite just five suspects the case is never solved and remains open for two decades. Until a young criminologist named Helgi Reykdal attempts to finally lay the ghosts of the hospital's past to rest . . .

The victim is Jane Sinclair, an attractive and vivacious red-head, who has been having an affair with James Powell, a well-known photographer. Whilst piecing the facts together, Frank finds himself increasingly attracted to Stella Powell, the photographer's wife, as they exchange views on Art, Literature and Life. However, as the forensic evidence mounts against Stella, Frank struggles to reconcile his feelings and his duty, until events lead to a terrifying conclusion at a famous Yorkshire landmark.
