Under The Black Sand [Hardcover]

'How could anyone possibly create a picture of him, standing next to that woman in his nightmares?' P?tur lives in the post-banking collapse Iceland where businessmen try to benefit and politicians pretend to be honest. He loves the thrill of money and power and he will not let anything get in his way. Not even the prime minister intimidates him. The nightmares featuring that one woman are an annoying nuisance that he tries to ignore. When he receives a photo of himself with her, he wonders how anyone could have known about her existence. How his nightmare girl could escape to the physical world. The boundaries between reality and insanity blur as a man is murdered in his office. The nightmares take over and become more real than the physical world around him.
