Description

Host Michael Tamblyn spoke with Eliza Reid, author of the novel Death on the Island. It's a mystery set on a remote island in Iceland where a dinner party of diplomats turns fatal for the deputy ambassador of Canada.

And it just so happens that the elements of this story—Iceland, diplomacy, and the perils of being a Canadian out in the world—these are all things that Ottawa-born Eliza Reid knows well from the 8 years she spent as the First Lady of Iceland.
