From the Monocle,
"Sigurdardottir was working as a civil enginner when she began writing as a hobby, and she released her debut, a children's book in 1998...."
"'In Iceland, a serial killer would need to kill everybody in a week,"she says. Nl one could get away with it year after year"
"'Well, what will happen? Nothing - I'll just go back to full-time work. If there is not a book in me this year, it's OK."
