Ten Year Stretch (2018) commemorates the first decade of the Petrona Award with short crime fiction from the writers who helped establish Scandinavian crime fiction as a major global genre. Sigurdardottir’s inclusion reflects her standing as one of the leading voices in that tradition — she is among the most translated Icelandic writers alive and one of the few who has won the Petrona Award.

For readers who want to sample her shorter work, or who want an overview of the Scandinavian crime scene through a collection of stories, this anthology provides a good entry point.
