Burial Rites by Hannah Kent


Hannah Kent was an exchange student in Iceland when she was a teenager. During her time there, she heard about the last woman, Agnes Magnúsdóttir , to be executed in Iceland in 1892. Agnes was found guilty of murdering two men and was sentenced to death. Hannah Kent used facts to make up the story about this woman’s life. It's a fabulous read.
