I Remember You: A Ghost Story [Paperback]

I Remember You won the Icelandic Crime Fiction Award and also was nominated for The Glass Key Award.

In this terrifying tale, three friends set to work renovating a rundown house in a remote, totally isolated location. But they soon realize they are not as alone as they thought. Something wants them to leave. Meanwhile, in a nearby town, a young doctor investigating the suicide of an elderly woman discovers that she was obsessed with his vanished son. When the two stories collide, the shocking truth becomes horribly clear.

In the vein of Stephen King and John Ajvide Lindqvist partly based on a true story, is the scariest novel yet from Yrsa Sigurdard?ttir, who has captivated the attention of readers around the world with her mystery series featuring attorney Thora Gudmundsdottir. Now, Yrsa will stun readers once again with this out-of-this-world ghost story that will leave you shivering.

I Remember Youranks among the scariest, right up there with the best of Stephen King and Peter Straub. It's that good. And that scary. And, ultimately, that moving. EarlyWord

Sigurdardottir combines an intricate mystery with a very frightening ghost story. RT Book Reviews

A multilayered tale that builds slowly--the use of smells is especially effective--but drives to a shattering climax that honors the traditions of both detective fiction and ghost stories. Kirkus Reviews

Genuinely bone chilling, and proves that as well as being the Queen of Icelandic crime fiction, Sigurdard?ttir is a generator of fear quite as adroit as such writers as Stephen King. The Independent (UK)

A chiller-thriller of immense scariness. The Times (UK)
