On the shores of a tranquil fjord in Northern Iceland, a man is
brutally beaten to death on a bright summer's night. As the 24-hour
light of the arctic summer is transformed into darkness by an ash
cloud from a recent volcanic eruption, a young reporter leaves
Reykajvik to investigate on her own, unaware that an innocent
person's life hangs in the balance. Ari Thor Arason and his
colleagues on the tiny police force in Siglufjoerdur struggle with
an increasingly perplexing case, while their own serious personal
problems push them to the limit. As silent, unspoken horrors from
the past threaten them all, and the darkness deepens, it's a race
against time to find the killer before someone else dies... Dark,
terrifying and complex, Blackout is an exceptional, atmospheric
thriller from one of Iceland's finest crime writers. `Jonasson's
books have breathed new life into Nordic Noir' Jake Kerridge,
Sunday Express `A distinctive blend of Nordic Noir and Golden Age
detective fiction ... economical and evocative prose, as well as
some masterful prestidigitation' Laura Wilson, Guardian `Jonasson's
writing is a masterful reinvention of the Golden Age classic style,
both contemporary and timeless ... enclosed by the poetic beauty of
the location' Crime Review `A classic crime story seen through a
uniquely Icelandic lens ... first rate and highly recommended' Lee
Child 'A modern take on an Agatha Christie-style mystery, as twisty
as any slalom...' Ian Rankin
