Today "Arktis", the fifth volume of Jógvan Isaksen's Faroese noir series about detective William Hammer and the Skansa Department, is released in Denmark.

A large group of Chinese have arrived in the Faroe Islands, and a woman from the group is looking for William Hammer and the Skansa Department to hire them as bodyguards. This is the beginning of a mysterious case with potentially dramatic consequences for the Faroe Islands. The Faroese authorities are very secretive about the Chinese visit, but together with his team William Hammer plans to uncover the truth behind the huge interest of China in these small group of islands up north.
The novel has been translated into Danish by Anya Mathilde Poulsen and published by Marselius.
