Nightblind

An Thor Arason is a local policeman whose tumultuous past and uneasy relationships with the villagers in an idyllically quiet fishing village in Northern Iceland - where no one locks their doors - continue to haunt him. The peace of this close-knit community is shattered by the murder of a policeman - shot at point-blank range in the dead of night in a deserted house. With a killer on the loose and the dark Arctic winter closing in it falls to Ari Thor to piece together a puzzle that involves tangled local politics a compromised new mayor and a psychiatric ward in Reykjavik where someone is being held against their will. Then a mysterious young woman moves to the area on the run from something she dares not reveal and it becomes all too clear that tragic events from the past are weaving a sinister spell that may threaten them all.--
