Sinossi
In una Reykjavík avvolta nella coltre di un inverno che sembra il più freddo di sempre, l'agente Erlendur Sveinsson affronta un caso che lo costringe a confrontarsi con i fantasmi del passato. La morte di Elías, dieci anni, madre thailandese e padre islandese, accoltellato in mezzo alla neve in un giardino, lo tocca nel profondo. Non è solo l'ennesimo omicidio su cui investigare, è una vicenda che alimenta in lui l'angoscia per quel fratello perso da piccolo nel pieno di una bufera? Non c'è tempo, però, di abbandonarsi ai ricordi dolorosi: il burbero poliziotto e la sua squadra iniziano un delicato lavoro di indagine. Il fratellastro di Elías è scomparso: sarà implicato nella morte del piccolo o teme per la propria vita?

La vita era un guazzabuglio di casualità imprevedibili che governavano il destino delle persone come una tempesta che si scatena senza preavviso e causa feriti e morte. L’Islanda nel 2005 (anno di pubblicazione del libro) solo da pochi anni (forse un decennio) si confronta con la realtà di una so Leggi tutto

5th book in the series starring detective Erlendur This crime novel is another winner and surely will become a world wide hit.

Below average Erlendur tale, IMHO. It barely makes the 3 star. The tone is heavy and at the same time continually quarrelsome. And it involves 9 to 14/15 year olds so there are masses of conversations that equate to 5th grade bickering. Erlendur himself incredibly subdued and far more morose than av Leggi tutto

إثرَ سقوط أحد أبناء الجاليات الأجنبية (الجالية التايلندية)، صريعاً مقتولاً سابحاً في بركةٍ من دمه الذي نزفه، يهرع المحققّون لكشف ملابسات القضية للوقوف على الفاعل وخلفيات الجريمة. باعتقادي، أراد الكاتب أن أن يُسلّط الضوء على أوضاع الجاليات الأجنبية في أيسلندا، والذين يُسمّونهم بـ (المهاجرين). لكن، بدا Leggi tutto
Man I love this series! It's been awhile since I've listened to this series. In my opinion audiobook is the way to consume this series, if you have access to the audiobooks.
