Eclipse

In a remote place in northern Iceland, a mutilated body has been discovered. Police officer Ari Thor, assigned to the investigation, tries to gather all the information about the crime victim to understand the causes of the tragedy. However, the... identity of the murdered person intrigues not just the police officer. A journalist from Reykjavik is conducting a parallel investigation, driven not only by the desire to write a sensational report. At the same time, in an abandoned village near the crime scene, a Nepali girl is trapped, waiting for death… The mysteries multiply, the past plays with the present, tension rises, and the storylines intertwine into a tight knot. «Eclipse» is the second book in the series about Ari Thor, a young detective who, having left his home and beloved in Reykjavik, arrived to serve in a small town in the north of the country, cut off from the rest of the world by harsh nature. The novel was released immediately after «Snowblind» and was very successful with readers, like other books by Ragnar Jónasson, the «king of Scandinavian noir», who has received prestigious literary awards and is recognized as one of the best contemporary writers working in the detective genre.
