This was a Time Magazine Book of the Year and winner of the Crime Writer's Association Silver Dagger Award.
I've not had a chance to read this yet but this is from the back of the book:
"One winter evening the neighbor's six year old boy falls to his death from the apartment roof in Copenhagen. Accidental death, say the police. But Smilla Jaspersen, a resourceful, tenacious and bloody-minded Greenlander, knows the boy well; moreover she has a feeling for snow--and those last footprints tell her a tale...Her investigation starts in Denmark and leads to the Artic ice cap as Smilla doggedly homes in on her quarry."
