"A master of the Icelandic thriller."--New York Post As snow blankets Reykjavik and Christmas approaches, young detective Helgi is looking forward to a quiet holiday--until those plans are torn away in a flash. One month after his girlfriend Anita is killed in a car accident, he returns to work in Reykjavik, haunted by loss and rage. The driver--Helgi's ex-girlfriend BergTHora, a violent alcoholic whose abuse he kept secret--insists Anita's death was an accident and walks free. To escape his mounting despair, Helgi throws himself into the unsolved disappearance of his predecessor, Hulda, a retired officer long presumed dead. But as he follows the traces she left behind, the lines between her past and his present begin to blur . . . When BergTHora is later found lifeless in her bath, suspicion falls squarely on Helgi.
