An elderly couple are worried about their granddaughter. They know she's
been smuggling drugs, and now she's gone missing. Looking for help, they
turn to Konrad, a former policeman whose reputation precedes him.
Always absent-minded, he constantly ruminates on the fate of his father,
who was stabbed to death decades ago. But digging into the past reveals
much more than anyone set out to discover, and a little girl who drowned
in the Reykjavik city pond unexpectedly captures everyone's attention.
A brilliant, chilling tale of broken dreams and children who have
nowhere to turn.
