Helpless, crippled and alone, the ship cartwheeled through space. Its rate of tumble was ponderously slow, but its forward speed was as great as anything it had ever achieved under its own power. The gravity-sink of the incandescent star-mass dragged at it with mighty hunger, but its path was such that it was passing, it was in a cometary orbit; any time now it was due to swoop out of its loop and gradually begin to fall away again
from that searing nuclear reaction.
At any rate, the hundred people carried within it hoped so. They lay still, sweating and aching, sipping at overheated air with tortured lungs, blinking agonized eyes, and hoped that the murderous temperatures would start falling soon. It had to be soon, or never. Frantic calculations had been made on a computer only partly functioning, the rest of it
obliterated by the fragmentation-bombs that had blasted the rest of the hull like a collander. On the shaky basis of those figures the stuttering, protesting, half-maimed main-drive had been fired.

Long-buried secrets go hand in hand with modern-day murder in this second thriller featuring attorney Th�ra Gudmundsd��ttir from Iceland's queen of crime fiction
When the body of a young woman��badly beaten and with pins inserted into her feet��is found at a New Age health resort in a renovated farmhouse, lawyer and single mother of two Th��ra Gudmundsd��ttir is called upon to represent the chief suspect, the resort's owner. But upon her arrival she encounters more than a fresh corpse��local legend has it that the resort, located in the mystical region of Sn?fellsnes on Iceland's west coast, is haunted. At first Th��ra dismisses the claims as nothing more than myth and superstition, but even she can't explain the bizarre occurrences she witnesses in her search for answers.
As Th��ra digs deeper into the farm's past, she discovers long-buried information on the property's disturbing history, and her once-solid view of reality begins to waver. Are the hauntings real, or just a case of folklore gone wild? And, more important, does the farm's eerie past have something to do with the murder? When another body is discovered��looking very much like the first�Th��ra is forced to put aside her doubts and confront the horrors of the present before a twisted killer strikes again.
With its confident plotting, chilling atmosphere, and smart, compelling heroine, My Soul to Take confirms Yrsa Sigurdard�ttir as a new maven of mysteries..
