Özet

A young woman walks into the frozen fjords of Iceland, never to be seen again. But Matthildur leaves in her wake rumours of lies, betrayal and revenge.

Decades later, somewhere in the same wilderness, Detective Erlendur is on the hunt. He is looking for Matthildur but also for a long-lost brother, whose disappearance in a snow-storm when they were children has coloured his entire life. He is looking for answers.

Slowly, the past begins to surrender its secrets. But as Erlendur uncovers a story about the limits of human endurance, he realises that many people would prefer their crimes to stay buried.

Eleştirmen yorumları

The king of Icelandic crime fiction is not resting on his laurels, as the valedictory Strange Shores proves... An elegiac but compelling last bow
Be warned: if you've ever spent time with this marvellous Scandi crime character, you'll be hard pressed to hold back a tear
One of the most brilliant crime writers of his generation
As ever, Indridason’s writing combines a keen sense of place with an astringent investigation of the human psyche
A fascinating story and the resolution of Mattildur's disappearance feels authentic and believable. Readers who like retribution in their crime novels may find Erlunder's balanced, free-from-judgemental approach difficult to comprehend, but to me this was one of the most appealing aspects of the novel… I couldn't think of a more perfect way to say goodbye to one of my favourite fictional characters
Tragic and compelling (Joan Smith)
Thoroughly absorbing (Vince Cable)
Black Skies is one of, if not the best, of Indridason's books (Michael Carlson)
Indridason is perhaps the best crime writer alive... Masterful as ever
Essential Scandi-fiction

It's a fantastic book well narrated, and this was my second visit after reading the first. Evocative, heartwrenching and sparkling with the 6/8 time signature of a Burns poem covered by Island's own Kaleo, this book paints every emotion known to mankind in a brooding black.

Brilliant story telling! Bit lengthy but very absorbing - several tales in one sitting really, but all ends well

What did you like most about Strange Shores?

I have read others by Indridason. This is not really a crime novel, more a poetic exploration of loss and death. That makes it sound grim, and it is in places. It is also slightly supernatural, almost a ghost story.

What about Saul Reichlin’s performance did you like?

This was the first I heard as an audio book. It was a revelation! Saul Reichlin is an excellent reader. It was a pleasure to hear the Icelandic names pronounced neatly, and his measured delivery fitted the story perfectly. Also I enjoyed the writing a lot more than I did when reading it. I am a fast reader, and have a tendency to skip the slower-moving parts. Listening to the book being read to me, skip-reading was not possible, so I found I entered much more deeply into the world of the story.

...and avoid the Amazon spoilers for this as it is, in all likelihood, the last. Ironic that it is the first of his books to be available on Audible. Beautifully read, simply written, gloomy and gruesome and tender. Of all the Nordic noir writers, Indridason is the most soulful. Not all the books in the series are as effective - they dip when Erlandur is not the main protagonist - nor are they always similar in mood or intent, but this, the seeming last of them, is one of the best.

Read the others first...
