Seven Are Taciturn About Death in Blackout, Anglicized From Myrknætti

Summary: Seven are taciturn about death of an acquaintance in Blackout, anglicized from Myrknætti, third thriller from the Dark Iceland sextet by Ragnar Jónasson.

Grettislaug (Grettir's Pool, "Grettir's hot pool" literally), as the stone-flagged hot bath of Viking warrior Grettir Ásmundarson (997-1031), acts as a tourist attraction for tourists, actual and fictitious such as Evan Fein in Blackout, anglicized from Myrknætti. Evan ambles from Reykjavík ("smoky bay") around Blönduós ("mixed[-water] river-mouth"), Skagafjörður (Romanized Skagafjördur, "peninsula fjord") and Thverárfjall ("intersecting mountain"), to just before Sauðárkrókur (Romanized Saudárkrókur, "sheep river-mouth"). It appals him when he arrives at a summer house somewhere around Grettislaug that a bloody body awaits him: July 15, 2010, image of Grettislaug: Bromr, CC BY SA 3.0 Unported, via Wikimedia Commons

Seven are taciturn about death of an acquaintance in Blackout, anglicized from Myrknætti, third thriller from the Dark Iceland sextet about Siglufjörður (Romanized Siglufjördur) Detective Inspector Ari Thór Arason by Ragnar Jónasson.

Ohio art history student Evan Fein brakes before Sauðárkrókur for a bloody body, not Grettir’s Pool, which brings him from Reykjavík, to Blönduós, Skagafjörður and Thverárfjall. The corpse on barren Reykjaströnd (“smoky coast”) flatland and mountainside calls for Akureyri (“sandbank field”), Sauðárkrókur (Romanized Saudárkrókur, “sheep river-hook”) and Siglufjörður (Romanized Siglufjördur) police cooperation. Helga (“holy”) of Akureyri CID (Criminal Investigation Division) directs the interviewing duties done by Siglufjördur (“sailing fjord”) Inspector Tómas (“twin”) and policeman Ari Thór (“eagle thunder”).

His older son employed elsewhere, his younger son enjoying Akureyri college and summer-break employment there and his wife enrolled at Reykjavík (“smoky bay”) university enervate Tómas.

Ari Thór, who frets about Kristín and Ugla, finds himself following leads without fellow policeman Hlynur Ísaksson (“maple [Acer campestre, A. platanoides, A. pseudoplatanus] laugher’s son”).

Kristín (“Christ-bearer) gets together with Akureyri Hospital colleagues and go-between Natan (“[god] has given) and goes on coffeehouse and fish restaurant dates with a golf-playing widower. Ugla, whose lover fatally hit her Patreksfjörður (Romanized Patreksfjördur, “patrician fjord”) boyfriend Ágúst (“magnificent”), halts piano lessons with Ari Thór for having hidden having girlfriend Kristín. Ari Thór interacts with a redheaded Blönduós (“mixed[-water] river-mouth”) barfly once, Helga professionally, Hlynur’s Saudárkrókur girlfriend never and Móna (“Milady”) and Nóra Pálsdóttir during investigative interviews.

Hlynur’s girlfriend never journeys to Siglufjördur businesses or residences even as Hlynur judges it judicious to journey less often to Saudárkrókur in Blackout, anglicized from Myrknætti.

Knowing about childhood acquaintance Gauti (“Goth”) and about the latter’s and Oddrún’s (“weapon-point secret”) mother as suicides kindles Hlynur keeping personal and professional problems to himself.

Retired dentist Nóra Pálsdóttir lets upstairs rooms in her Hvanneyrarbraut (“gravel-bank way”) house to summer-house and tunnel contractor Elías (“My god is Yahweh”) Freysson (“lady’s son”). Divorce means her Akureyri apartment to Elías and her Kringlan (“circle” or “pretzel”?) mall and harbor cafés in Reykjavík for Idunn (“again wave [or] very love”). Móna’s husband Jökull’s brother Logi Jökullsson (“flame glacier’s son”), Páll Reynisson (“humble rowan’s [Sorbus aucuparia] son”) and Svavar Sindrason (“Swabian blacksmith’s son”) number among Elías’ workers.

Jónatan (“God has given”) offers oldest observations of Elías, whom foreman and Herring Lads singer Hákon Halldórsson (“high-clan stone-thunder’s son”) and performance artist Jói (“horse”) outshine.

Ísrún (“ice secret”) peregrinates from the Reykjavík television news position where she sometimes pleases bosses Ívar (“yew [Taxus baccata]”) and María (“beloved”) and colleague Kormákur (“charioteer”).

The maternal granddaughter of Heiðrún (“beauty secret”) and the paternal granddaughter of Ísbjörg (“ice castle”) quests the latter’s best friend Katrín (“both, faraway, 100 [or] pure”?). She researches her genealogy as rewardingly as factual reports and rampant rumors about disgraced doctor Ríkharður (Romanized Ríkhardur, “mighty strong”) Lindgren (“lime-tree [Tilia x europaea] branch”). She solves strange family stories with a recipe book that paternal grandfather Lárus salvages from such souvenirs as his wife’s several diaries that he never saves.

Ísrún never tempts Ari Thór other than as information source for solving a violent death about whose causes seven turn taciturn in Blackout, anglicized from Myrknætti.

Perhaps Ísrún, who avails herself of newspaper reporter Elín ("torch") as authoritative information source, adds to her information sources the Reykjavík (smoky bay") police equivalent of Ómar ("famous"), who perhaps acquaints Siglufjörður (Romanized Siglufjördur, "sailing fjord") policemen with whatever knowledge he acquires as an ambling, amiable retired skipper. She anchors the Reykjavík newsroom with bosses Ívar (“yew [Taxus baccata]”) and María (“beloved”) and colleague Kormákur (“charioteer”). Iceland added public news broadcasts in Icelandic with the Ríkisútvarpið (Romanized Ríkisútvarpid, The Icelandic National Broadcasting Service). The service acronymed RÚV admitted public radio broadcasts in Icelandic in 1930 and public television broadcasts in Icelandic 36 years later. Public radio and television broadcasts are headquartered in one building, since the year 2000, on Efstaleiti; Jan. 2, 2007, image of RÚV headquarters: Haukur Þorgeirsson (Haukurth), CC BY SA 3.0 Unported, via Wikimedia Commons
