The Ice Star is an excellent platform for Konstabel Fenna Brongaard's debut into the world of espionage. This story is almost all action and Fenna has to grit it out, all the way through. It's all about survival. Survival against the brutal arctic environment, and survival against brutal, professional killers. All the while needling to get to the bottom of the rotten goings on. I loved this story. It was a great read. A fast paced, page turning, thriller. What more could you want? The next in the series, naturally.'★★★★★ 'An intriguing book. The author paints a vivid picture of life above the Arctic Circle in very a remote and exotic location. As a woman I found the conclusion of the book particularly satisfying so I've committed to the second and third book of the trilogy.'★★★★★ 'Love the character of Fenna. A real femme fatale. Interesting locales. Great villains. I like the locales, Greenland, Denmark, Canada. A complex political subplot with. A strong story of adventure. Fenna is a very. Well written character.'★★★★★ 'Very different but brilliant Having never read a novel by this author I felt I should try it What an amazing rollercoaster of a story it was. Reading about Greenland itself was interesting as you really felt you were there with Fenna ( main female character) who I thought was brilliant and handled herself well in a dog eat dog world, run by corrupt men who will do anything for money, especially those in Canada.' ★★★★★ 'Fantastic. This is adventure of pure class. Once you turn the first page the adventure begins. I can't wait to read the next book of the trilogy.'★★★★★ 'Chilling Greenland crime thriller A rapid pace investigation with surprising twists and turns of horror. Read and get to know a tough female who knows her job and fears no one.'
