Description
The Darkness Knows is a spin-off from international bestseller Arnaldur Indridason's critically acclaimed Reykjavik-set novel, The Shadow District.
'The undisputed King of the Icelandic Thriller' — Guardian
'One of the greats of modern crime fiction' — Sunday Times
A frozen body is discovered in the icy depths of Langjökull glacier. The victim is a businessman who has been missing for thirty years. The case seemed impossible to solve. Until now.
Konrad, the retired policeman who originally investigated the disappearance, is called back to reopen the case that has weighed on his mind for decades. Then, a woman approaches him with new information she obtained from her deceased brother.
Will this be enough to solve the mystery at last? Can Konrad uncover the poisonous secrets and cruel truths that have built up over the decades?
In The Darkness Knows, the master of Icelandic crime writing returns with a powerful and haunting story about the poisonous secrets and cruel truths that time eventually uncovers.
