"The story takes place in the small town of Siglufjordur, the northernmost town in Iceland, one of my favorite places. It is the town where my father grew up and we spend a lot of time there so it has features in some of my books - but I have also enjoyed writing a few short stories set there. I hope you enjoy reading this one." - Ragnar Jónasson
