When Davíð is sent the papers left by Láki, the partner of his mother Elísabet, he is seized by a need to get to the bottom of what happened in the autumn of 2003. What part did his mother play in the fate of her friends Indi and Jón? Did Elísabet have a destructive effect on everyone around her? Did the Katla eruption bring out the evil in people? His search for the truth becomes a journey into the darkest corners of the soul and forces him to face hard questions about his own existence, in a story on the border between realism and fantasy.
