Reykjavik nights

Translated from the Icelandic by Victoria Cribb

The loner Erlendur has recently joined the police force as a young officer. The beat on the streets in Reykjavik is busy: traffic accidents, theft, domestic violence, contraband... And an unexplained death. When a tramp he met regularly on the night shift is found drowned in a ditch no one seems to care. But his fate haunts Erlendur and drags him inexorably into the strange and dark underworld of the city. - Features the young Erlendur: Reykjavik Nights is a prequel to the long-running, acclaimed series that recently concluded with Strange Shores.
