Death on the Island
by Eliza Reid - Fiction, Mystery

A group of international players has gathered in a tiny village off the coast of Iceland for a diplomatic dinner. There's Kristján, the mayor, who is reeling from a personal tragedy; Graeme, the ambassador, who has an agenda to push; Jane, his wife, who is along for the ride on another one of her husband's many business trips; and several others, from Iceland and from abroad, each with their own reason for being there, their own loyalties and grievances. By the end of the night, one of them will be dead. And it will be up to the ambassador's wife to figure out how --- and why. What Jane soon comes to realize is that small communities can be the most dangerous of them all…and no one in their group is safe.
