From Gold Dagger Award--winning author Arnaldur Indridason comes a
Reykjavík thriller introducing Inspector Erlendur
When a lonely old man is found dead in his Reykjavík flat, the only
clues are a cryptic note left by the killer and a photograph of a young
girl's grave. Inspector Erlendur discovers that many years ago the
victim was accused, but not convicted, of an unsolved crime, a rape. Did
the old man's past come back to haunt him? As Erlendur reopens this very
cold case, he follows a trail of unusual forensic evidence, uncovering
secrets that are much larger than the murder of one old man.
An international sensation, the Inspector Erlendur series has sold more
than two million copies worldwide.
