Rate this book
Que faire quand les morts violentes ne cessent de s'abattre autour de soi ?


C'est la question que se pose l'inspecteur Helgi, dont les deux compagnes ont été assassinées l'une après l'autre. Alors qu'une tempête de neige engloutit la capitale islandaise, et que les soupçons se referment sur lui, Helgi s'oublie dans sa fascination pour une ancienne policière, elle aussi disparue de façon tragique : Hulda Hermannsdóttir.


Comment l'enquête sur sa mort a-t-elle pu être ainsi bâclée ? L'affaire pourrait dissimuler une réalité plus inquiétante qu'il ne l'imagine.


Car quelqu'un connaît la vérité. Et compte bien la garder pour lui.


Ragnar Jónasson est l'un des auteurs de polars islandais les plus reconnus au monde. En 2023, il co-écrit avec la Première ministre d'Islande le phénomène Reykjavík. Après La Mort en blanc et Un calme blanc, l'envoûtant Jour blanc est la dernière enquête de la "Trilogie blanche", qui met en scène l'inspecteur Helgi Reykdal. Les volumes de la trilogie peuvent se lire indépendamment.


Traduit de l'islandais par Jean-Christophe Salaün
