An easy and compelling read and meaning as the reader I always wanted to know 'What happens next'. A great book, not too political and with some twists.
The story focusses on Ursula, previously a world aid worker who has returned to her home country of Iceland. What she has witnesses has hardened her against any feeling, including to her husband and children.
Ursula is offered a job of her dreams - Interior Minister. Apparently with no political loyalties she would be the perfect person for the role. She makes a promise on her first day and the story develops around events connected with that.
What follows is an easy and compelling read and always wanting to know 'What happens next'. The chapters are short (121 of them).
This was a different style of book for me and I am pleased I have read it.
