Review: The Girl Without Skin by Mads Peder Nordbo


5 Ice Stars!

My first exposure to "Greenlandic Noir," a topic I've been anticipating since I discovered the beauties of Icelandic Noir, GIRL WITHOUT A SKIN is intensely Greenlandic,  AND intensely Noir. I caution ahead of time: I found the novel riveting,  with several characters I very much admired.  However,  for those with Sensitive dispositions and/or those readily triggered: this Mystery is drenched in gore, and is descriptive of it; AND the background story is heartwrenching,  heartbreaking, infuriating, and deals with Child Abuse in multiple aspects.  So be forewarned.
