Crime Fiction Alphabet Letter i - week beginning.Mini Review: VOICES, Arnaldur Indridason.On Euro Crime by Karen Meek, by Maxine Clarke, by Norman Price.
My rating when I read the book over 2 years ago was my maximum: 5.0 And even in the last 10 pages we are still juggling candidates for the killer. Erlendur of course eventually solves the murder mystery but along the way we learn a lot about the ghosts of his own past, and gain insight into his relationship with his drug-addicted daughter Eva Lind. Originally published in 2003, it made it into English in 2006, translated by Bernard Scudder. The 5th in the Erlendur series, VOICES was Indridason's 3rd novel to be translated into English. Is there anything to celebrate? Strangely he moves into the hotel while the investigation of the murder is carried out just feeling he can't go back to his flat. The doorman at a Reykjavik hotel who doubles every year as Santa at Christmas parties in the hotel is found dead by one of the hotel maids, stabbed to death, in his squalid basement room.Ĭhristmas is fast approaching and the detective Erlendur is confronted by the problem of how or even if he is going to celebrate Christmas. Then it is also part of a new meme I'm running, Suggest a Christmas Title.
I'm hitting 2 birds with one stone here, so to speak.įirst of all this post is part of the Crime Fiction Alphabet meme, for the Letter I.
