This is not a great book. I got it at deep discount and would have been ahead on my savings had I not bothered to complete the read.
The plot: an assassin leaves New York, ends up in Iceland, finds love and reforms.
The writing is not great; were the author American and not Icelandic, I'd say dreadful but I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt and the ability to blame it all on a poor translator. Realistically though, I believe the problems are far beyond translation issues.
Oddly enough, the last several pages were the best written in the book. Still, it would be cruel of me to recommend this.
Even on discount.
