Put Thurs 12 June into your diary if you love your Scandi noir. It's the launch date for Broken, by Icelandic author Jón Atli Jónasson, who co-wrote the script for The Deep. We've started it and we're tipping Broken as a must read for the summer...🇮🇸 amzn.to/4mOzpol

Dóra is a Reykjavik cop whose life changed when she was shot in the head. With his East European background Rado's kept on the fringes at police HQ. But these two outsider characters are the beating heart of Broken, out Thurs from Jón Atli Jónasson. amzn.to/4mOzpol
