Detective Sigurdur Oli is in trouble.

After a school reunion exposes the chasm between his life and those of his much more successful contemporaries, leaving him bitter and resentful, one of his old friends asks him to pay an unofficial visit to a couple of blackmailers. He readily agrees, only to arrive to find one of the pair lying in a pool of blood. When the victim dies in hospital, Sigurdur Oli is faced with investigating a murder without revealing his own reasons for being present at the murder scene.

Moving from the villas of Reykjavík's banking elite to a sordid basement flat, Black Skies is a superb story of greed, pride and murder from one of Europe's most successful crime writers.

Critic Reviews

Essential Scandi-fiction
An international literary phenomenon - and it's easy to see why. His novels are gripping, authentic, haunting and lyrical
Satisfying and topical... Brilliant stuff (Maxine Clark)
Black Skies is one of, if not the best, of Indridason's books (Michael Carlson)
Indridason is perhaps the best crime writer alive... Masterful as ever
Sigurdur Oli is a troubled cop. He’s a bit spiky. He loves American football and baseball. When it comes to music, he likes rock. He’s very male. He recently split up with his fiancée. He doesn’t have a great relationship with is mum, but he’s dogged. You might not like him in person but he’s great to read about (William Leith)
