Resumen del Editor
Inspector Erlendur returns in this gripping Icelandic thriller
When a skeleton is discovered half-buried in a construction site outside of ReykjavIk, Inspector Erlendur finds himself knee-deep in both a crime scene and an archeological dig. Bone by bone, the body is unearthed, and the brutalizing history of a family who lived near the building site comes to light along with it. Was the skeleton a man or a woman, a victim or a killer, and is this a simple case of murder or a long-concealed act of justice?
As Erlendur tries to crack this cold case, he must also save his drug-addicted daughter from self destruction and somehow glue his hopelessly fractured family back together. Like the chilly Nordic mysteries of Henning Mankell and Karen Fossum, Arnaldur Indridason delivers a stark police procedural full of humanity and pathos, a classic noir from a very cold place.

Historia
Cyril Avery is not a real Avery - or at least that's what his adoptive parents tell him. And he never will be. But if he isn't a real Avery, then who is he? Born out of wedlock to a teenage girl cast out from her rural Irish community and adopted by a well-to-do if eccentric Dublin couple via the intervention of a hunchbacked Redemptorist nun, Cyril is adrift in the world, anchored only tenuously by his heartfelt friendship with the infinitely more glamourous and dangerous Julian Woodbead.

A 90-year-old man is found dead in his bed, smothered with his own pillow. On his desk, the police find newspaper cuttings about a murder case dating from the Second World War, when a young woman was found strangled behind Reykjavik's National Theatre. Konrad, a former detective, is bored with retirement and remembers the crime. He grew up in "the shadow district", a rough neighborhood bordered by the National Theatre. Why would someone be interested in that crime now?

Historia
Reykjavik, August 1941. When a travelling sales rep is found murdered in a Reykjavik flat, killed by a bullet from a Colt 45, the police initially suspect a member of the Allied occupation force. The British are in the process of handing over to the Americans, and the streets of Reykjavik are crawling with servicemen whose relations with the local women are a major cause for concern. Flovent, Reykjavik's sole detective, is joined by the young military policeman Thorson, the son of Icelandic emigrants to Canada.

Historia
In Made in America, Bryson de-mythologizes his native land, explaining how a dusty hamlet with neither woods nor holly became Hollywood, how the Wild West wasn't won, why Americans say 'lootenant' and 'Toosday', how Americans were eating junk food long before the word itself was cooked up, as well as exposing the true origins of the G-string, the original $64,000 question, and Dr Kellogg of cornflakes fame.

Historia
Jennifer Thorne skewers all-too-familiar family dynamics in this sly, wickedly funny vacation-Gothic. Beautifully unhinged and deeply satisfying, Diavola is a sharp twist on the classic haunted house story, exploring loneliness, belonging, and the seemingly inescapable bonds of family mythology.

Wanted to review another book : Artic Chill
Should have taken reviews of Artic Chill to heart! It was awful and BORING. I was so disappointed because I have loved the author and of course, George Guidall is the BEST!
I returned Artic Chill. I plan to order another book by Indridason because I do not want to give up just because of one bad story. Honestly, the same questions were asked over and over and the story just never went anywhere. I was surprised to learn about racism being an issue. I have been fascinated with Iceland and have just begun to explore its history and culture. I have a lot to learn.

Excellent story.
Any additional comments?
For those of us that experienced the "soul murder" of domestic violence, this book describes it accurately.

DREARY
Any additional comments?
I used to be a fan of 'Nordic Noir' but it is getting awfully predictable. This is just plain lugubrious and dreary - with A LOT of social preaching ( yes - we all now get that the Scandinavian model of society has its downside) while more or less completely forgetting the actual story. Readers/listeners are NOT just punching bags for long social commentary masked as realist noir fiction. This was slow, depressing and felt like wading through mud. Not helped by this narrator - who I have heard and had trouble with before. Slow, and too 'folksy'. Very little variation. That was OK - just - in the Longmire books; but the combo in this one sinks the ship.

Painful Life
This is a story about life that's hardest to live. Battered women beware, all females will be triggered by this story line. At times difficult to hear, but the story line moves along with twists n turns and one keeps up.

Terrible violence against women and children
This book had some of the most depressing parts to it that I have ever read/listened to. If u, like me, have a low tolerance for scenes where women and children r being tortured, especially over years by the male head of household, then u may want to skip this book and try another by this author. The book moves a little slowly, which for me were unbearable during these grotesquely cruel parts. I finally had to fast forward some through the last one. The narrator, George Guidall, is excellent, and a little too good in this particular book. I am going to read some other books by this author though. I think he writes well, though there r some parts where u can see things coming so clearly and the detective doesn't that it seems silly. I think there was a point to be made with the violence, tho I sure didn't need so much of it. How violence against women and children goes on and on, in every culture, and no system of "justice" does a thing for them. .

The killer is....first, let's visit my brother...
Any additional comments?
The writing was excellent, the characters were well developed, and George Guidall's performance of the story was outstanding. I'll definitely be looking for more books narrated by Mr. Guidall.
The story was very suspenseful (which I usually like), but this book was suspenseful in the most annoying and not very believable way. For example - and don't worry, no spoilers here - the book goes a little like this:
"Do you know who the victim is?"
"Yes, I do."
"Who is it?"
"I'll tell you tomorrow."
"Do you know who the killer is?"
"Yes, I do."
"Who is it?"
"Let's visit my brother."
No kidding. It's A LOT like that. ^
Still, excellent character development and exploration into the psychology surrounding domestic violence from the perspective of the abuser, abused, and authorities/witnesses.

Exactly what I needed
Although there were parts that were very sad and depressing, this kind of story grounds me to reality. There are people out there that have to go through similar if not worse situations than the characters in this story. Hearing these types of stories helps me as a career public servant. Sick, depressing and all too real. Pretty good read.
