Sunrise

Like I said before.  I ordered a number of audio-books to read on a long road trip.  I ordered more than I could possibly read on the trip but since they were coming from other libraries I didn't know if they would arrive in time to take along.  As luck would have it, they all arrived at about the same time.  I've been trying to make it through them all before they are due back.  Today I finished up The Creak on the Stairs.  I don't know if there is a genre called Scandinavian Noir but this book would be a fine example.  It takes place in Iceland.  I don't know if it's the odd names of the people and places, how the characters view life, or maybe just the way the stories are imbued w/ the dark and cold.   They make good reads when you can curl up near the fireplace with a warm throw and a cat.
