What happened to Lara?

Iceland, 1956. Fifteen-year-old Lára spends the summer working for a couple on the small island of Videy, just off the coast of Reykjavík.

In early August, the girl disappears without a trace.

The mystery becomes Iceland's greatest unsolved case. What happened to the young girl? Is she still alive? Did she leave the island, or did something happen to her there?

Thirty years later in August, 1986, as the city of Reykjavík celebrates its 200th anniversary, journalist Valur Robertsson begins his own investigation into Lara's case. But as he draws closer to discovering the secret, and with the eyes of Reykjavík upon him, it soon becomes clear that Lara's disappearance is a mystery that someone will stop at nothing to keep unsolved . . .

Recensioni della critica

A classic crime novel, its noir at its finest
Nordic noir at its most authoritative.
A crime novel with a difference
Seamlessly plotted, with terrific characters and plenty of surprising, earned twists. Jonasson and Jakobsdottir, demonstrate with understated brilliance how the truth rises to the surface, no matter how ugly it is or how powerful the players are.
A classic. As tense as anything Jonasson has previously written
A beautifully constructed mystery by two super smart partners in crime (ANTHONY HOROWITZ)
A slow-burning, spellbinding whodunit. Agatha Christie, to whom it's dedicated, would be proud
I read all 349 pages in one go and enjoyed every second . . . A gripping story . . . extremely well written . . . superbly plotted . . . The twist at the halfway point of the book hits the reader like a wave of the ice cold Atlantic Ocean. One reader at my home was almost in shock. It is an art to create such a deep connection with fictional characters. Even though the story is first and foremost entertaining, it also serves as the mirror of a nation and has many layers
Loved it!
Brilliant. Very exciting, great fun, good characterization, and the atmosphere of the 80s is described in an enjoyable way. One of the best crime novels I've read in a long time (Gisli Marteinn Baldursson)
