An Icelandic detective and a member of the American military police are on the trail of a brutal killer. The present: an elderly man is discovered dead on his bed, smothered with his own pillow. Konrad, a retired detective, finds old newspaper cuttings in the man's home reporting the shadow district murder. It's a crime Konrad remembers, having grown up in the same neighbourhood. A missing link: why, after all this time, would an old crime resurface? How are these events connected across the decades? And will Konrad's link to the past help him solve the case and finally lay the ghosts of wartime Reykjavik to rest? 546 $a Translated from the Icelandic. 650 0 $a World War, 1939-1945 $z Iceland $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Murder $x Investigation $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Ex-police officers $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Cold cases (Criminal investigation) $v Fiction. 651 0 $a ReykjaviÌk (Iceland) $v Fiction. 611 27 $a World War (1939-1945) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01180924 650 7 $a Murder $x Investigation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01029788 650 7 $a Ex-police officers. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00917462 650 7 $a Cold cases (Criminal investigation) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01736451 651 7 $a Iceland $z ReykjaviÌk. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01208376 651 7 $a Iceland. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01210572 648 7 $a 1939-1945 $2 fast 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 0 $a Detective and mystery stories. 655 7 $a Detective and mystery fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726581 655 7 $a Detective and mystery fiction. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Cribb, Victoria, $e translator. 800 1 $a Arnaldur Indridason, $d 1961-. $t Reykjavik wartime mystery ; $v 1. 941 $a 1 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20190925012839.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9862BD3EC63411E9B2362BFE96128E48 994 $a Z0 $b LJWInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
