Kristófer has run a well-loved restaurant in central Reykjavík for decades. On the day the pandemic makes him close it, an unexpected Facebook friend request throws him back fifty years, to a locked door in London and the morning he learned they were gone without a word. Despite the virus he sets off across the globe in search of an answer, with memories of love, secrets and regret for company.
