This book is number 7 in the Erlandur series and after 7 tries, the author finally has got the right mix of murder investigation and discourses on the private lives of the on-going police characters; both parts are good, the story is suitably complex and the private lives parts of the book are usually just the right length and only occasionally too long; and there’s a lot of Icelandic atmosphere without the book’s being cluttered with endless recitation of street names and other transparent literary devices
