Summary
When a group of international activists arrive on the Faroe Islands intent on stopping the traditional whale hunts, or grindadrap, tensions between islanders and protestors run high. And when a woman is found murdered only hours after a violent confrontation at a whale drive, the circumstances seem purposely designed to create even more animosity between the two sides.
For Faroese detective Hjalti Hentze and DI Jan Reyna, the case quickly exposes personal connections and conflicts of interest. But as they dig deeper, it becomes increasingly clear that the murder has other more sinister aspects to it. Knowing evidence is being hidden from them, and faced with deception on all sides, neither Reyna nor Hentze knows who to trust or how far some people might go to defend their beliefs.

A good second book
This is a good second book and an interesting idea for a series of books.
There is a pause now between chapters and the change from first to third person and that has improved the flow and is less confusing.
The narration is excellent and the characterizations are perfect.
Highly recommend this series.

Brilliant
I loved the first and the second is even better. Story and Characters well rounded and fast paced and narrator perfect. I simply couldn't stop listening and can't wait to dive into the 3rd and last book.

Superb second book in the trilogy
Superb 2nd book - I had to carry on with the 3rd one immediately before stopping to review this one! I've given this 5 stars again even though I didn't like the passages about the whale killing and processing. It's something I think is unnecessary in the 21st century for these people but the subject's an essential part of this book. The threads of the story are once again well woven, and the narrator continued to impress me. A comfort read, not an edge of the seat story, but captivating.

Great but animal lovers need to prepare themselves!!!
Another good believable story clearly laying the foundation for future reading. Builds well on first book.... more Nordic greys than noir well read

Excellent book, well read
I really like the way that Chris Ould writes, his characters are normal people without obsessions and behave as real people would behave.
This had a good story, I wasn't on the edge of my seat with suspense - but I enjoyed listening to the unfolding tale in a relaxed way.
It was very well read by Matt Addis.
Have I really got to wait a year for number three in the trilogy? Sigh!!

A great British copper series in a foreign land
I have left same review on each as this should be listended as a series. Cracking series and enjoyed more than I expected. Thankfully, having the main character a stranger in a foreign land immediately allows the listener to empathise with the central character. The whole feeling of things being alien but people and coppers and crime being the same the world over also helped. I was honestly a little bit sad when it finished

Faroe Islands mystery
Unusual location for this murder mystery. Narration just right . Although story is quite slowly paced,, it has enough twists to keep it interesting. I listen before going to sleep, so I like the fact that it isn't too gory.
