À propos de cet audio

When a body of a woman is discovered at a lighthouse in the Icelandic town of Akranes, it soon becomes clear that she’s no stranger to the area.

Chief Investigating Officer Elma, who has returned to Akranes following a failed relationship, and her collegues Sævar and Hörður commence an uneasy investigation which uncovers a shocking secret in the dead woman’s past that continues to reverberate in the present day.

But as Elma and her team make a series of discoveries, they bring to light a host of long-hidden crimes that shake the entire community. Sifting through the rubble of the townspeople’s shattered memories, they have to dodge increasingly serious threats and find justice...before it’s too late.

I am happy to have discovered yet another first-rate Icelandic crime writer. I was a little surprised at how the author chose to handle the ending.

very engaging characters

This was a good one, and I'm hoping that it's the first in a series, because the setting and characters were instantly interesting and likable. Well, the police characters/their families, anyway. The persons of interest could all use a slap...
The mystery was compelling and well plotted, if a little obvious, but the ending was very abrupt.
I listened to this one, and I wasn't a big fan of the narrator, although objectively she wasn't bad.
My only other thing is, I kind of hate it when Scandinavian books are translated into British English. It's not the spellings or anything, it's the idioms and phrases. They stick out so much. I know that stuff can be hard to translate, but I'd really rather know what the Icelandic term or saying is, you know?

good
