Listen "DEATH AT THE SANATORIUM by Ragnar Jónasson, read by Sam Woolf"
Episode Synopsis
Sam Woolf creates a foreboding atmosphere in this disturbing mystery with strong Christie vibes. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Robin Whitten discuss this newest story from Ragnar Jónasson set in Iceland in 1952, 1983, and 2012. Listeners enter a tuberculosis sanatorium repurposed from the 1940-50s and meet likable Helgi, who is reopening an investigation into earlier unsolved murders. Woolf maintains a consistent atmosphere of dread while flawlessly segueing from ordinary to terrifying situations. Audio is ideal for the slowly unfolding police procedural and its abrupt, disturbing conclusion.
