The Draining Lake: An Inspector Erlendur Novel, Paperback

Descriere

Inspector Erlendur returns in this international Bestseller Following an earthquake, the water level of an Icelandic lake suddenly falls, revealing a skeleton. Inspector Erlendur's investigation takes him back to the Cold War era, when bright, left-wing students in Iceland were sent to study in the ``heavenly state`` of Communist East Germany. Teeming with spies and informants, though, their ``heavenly state`` becomes a nightmare of betrayal and murder. Brilliantly weaving international espionage and a chilling cold case investigation, The Draining Lake is Arnaldur Indridason at his best.
