Oblivion

by Arnaldur Indriðason

Blurb

One of the most popular figures in international crime fiction returns: Detective Erlendur is back.

THE QUICK
A woman swims in a remote, milky-blue lagoon. Steam rises from the water and as it clears, a body is revealed in the ghostly light.

THE DEAD
Miles away, a vast aircraft hangar rises behind the perimeter fence of the US military base. A sickening thud is heard as a man's body falls from a high platform.

THE FORGOTTEN
Many years before, a schoolgirl went missing. The world has forgotten her. But Erlendur has not.

THE SEARCHER
Erlendur Sveinsson is a newly promoted detective with a battered body, a rogue CIA operative and America's troublesome presence in Iceland to contend with. In his spare time he investigates a cold case. He is only starting out but he is already up to his neck.

A great story line where murder meets politics, showing the troubled relationships between the USA and Iceland, but through personal view points. It also has two events investigated which are resolved really well by the end. Great book!
