Description

Random House presents the audiobook edition of The Shadow Killer by Arnaldur Indridason, read by Sean Barrett.

Reykjavík, August 1941. When a travelling salesman is found murdered in a basement flat, killed by a bullet from a Colt .45, the police initially suspect a member of the Allied occupation force.

The British are in the process of handing over to the Americans, and the streets are crawling with servicemen whose relations with the local women are a major cause for concern.

Flóvent, Reykjavík’s sole detective, is joined by the young military policeman Thorson. Their investigation focuses on a family of German residents, the retired doctor Rudolf Lunden and his estranged son Felix, who is on the run, suspected of being a spy.

Flóvent and Thorson race to solve the case and to stay ahead of US counterintelligence amid rumours of a possible visit by Churchill. As evidence emerges of dubious experiments carried out on Icelandic schoolboys in the 1930s, Thorson becomes increasingly suspicious of the role played by the murdered man’s former girlfriend, Vera, and her British soldier lover.

A Slow Slog

Perhaps it is just me, but I found this book almost impossible to finish. My mind kept drifting away and I'd have to rewind to the beginning of the chapter and listen all over again. Even during the last chapter, (the RESOLUTION!) I had to rewind several times because I kept tuning out. I changed the "speed" of narration in my settings, but there was nothing I could do to make me want to pay attention to this book.

I really liked Jar City .... I think maybe this narrator should drink a bit more coffee or something.
