I quite like this guy; have read this before; it is the one about the Icelandic left wing students who go on a communist sponsored year to Leipzig university in the late 60’s/early 70’s basically to be indoctrinated into communism.
Communism isn’t all it is cracked up to be and the ones who can see this rebel and suffer as a result. Thirty years later a body is found in a draining lake near Rekjavik and Erlendur and his colleagues slowly track it back to the events of the 1960’s.
It is a very good story, and I like Erlendur and Elinborg, the detective come food writer, amongst that group of policemen.
