British thriller writer Lee Child spoke with authors Ragnar Jónasson and Yrsa Sigurðardóttir at a church yesterday, in an event at the Iceland Noir literary festival, mbl.is reports.

Child is best known for his Jack Reacher novels, which have sold more than 200 million copies worldwide and been translated into more than 50 languages. A television series based on the books has been shown on Amazon Prime in recent years.
