"Lucy Paterson brings finely honed narration skills to this mystery involving bullying, trauma, and murder." â?? AudioFile Magazine

The Absolution is the third installment in Queen of Icelandic crime fiction Yrsa Sigurdardóttir's series about the psychologist Freyja and the police officer Huldar.
The police find out about the crime the way everyone does: on Snapchat. The video shows a terrified young woman begging for forgiveness. When her body is found, it is marked with a number "2".
Detective Huldar joins the investigation, bringing child psychologist Freyja on board to help question the murdered teenager's friends. Soon, they uncover that Stella was far from the angel people claim, but who could have hated her enough to kill?
Then another teenager goes missing, more clips are sent to social media, and the body with a "3" is found. Freyja and Huldar can agree on two things at least: the truth is far from simple. The killer is not done yet. And is there an undiscovered body carrying the number "1" out there?

Another good book in this series. 3.5 ( )

Fínasta saga. Kunni vel við persónurnar og flækjurnar en fannst lítið unnið úr þeim efnivið. Umfjöllunarefnið er fyrst og fremst grimmúðlegt einelti og birtingarmynd þess á netmiðlum. Glæpirnir eru snúnir og erfiðir fyrir lögregluna til aflausnar og raunar líka lesandann að átta sig á plottinu sem er kostur. ( )

This is the third volume of the series, "Children's House". It is definitely the best of the trilogy, in my opinion. My biggest problem is that it has taken me a really long time to be clear on who is who because of the difficulty I had discriminating the Icelandic names. The internal dynamics amongst the police, the interesting murder plot, and the primary theme of the serious damage which bullying inflicts on its victims all combine to make a very good read! ( )

Shelter in place and social distancing has at times left me unable to concentrate. I think we are all turning to different, comfort read. Mine seem to be mysteries. Seems strange I know, since there are deaths, but in a strange way I find it comforting that by books end the case is solved. No open ended dates, or waiting to see what comes next, unless of course there is a sequel.

Anyway, this mystery is set in Iceland and I love these Nordic settings. It also ties together nicely done current themes of our times, social media is one. The others I won't say as it will give to much away. I like these author, have read other books by her, and she does a very good job balancing interesting characters with a very good plot. Though there is dome graphic violence, it is not overdone. She is a very able storyteller.

ARC from Netgalley. ( )

Ein Mädchen wird im Kino überfallen, misshandelt und brutal ermordet. Der Täter macht Filmaufnahmen und verschickt diese über die sozialen Medien an ihre Kontakte. Bei der Befragung der Freunde und Mitschüler stellt sich mit der Zeit heraus, dass die ermordete Stella nicht so nett war, wie es anfangs scheint. Doch wer hat ihr das angetan? Dann wird ein Junge namens Egill vermisst und wieder wird über die sozialen Medien alles öffentlich gemacht. Die Ermittlungen kommen nicht von der Stelle.
Dies ist der dritte Band um Kommissar Huldar und die Psychologin Freyja. Ich habe auch bereits die Vorgängerbände gelesen und daher kommen mir Freyja und Huldar wie alte Bekannte vor.
Der Schreibstil hat mir gut gefallen und lässt sich angenehm lesen, aber es geht auch wieder brutal zu.
Huldar ist ein Mensch mit Ecken und Kanten, nicht unbedingt sympathisch, aber ein guter Ermittler. Zwischen seiner Chefin Erla und ihm läuft es nicht gut. Auch Freyja hat ihre Probleme.
Die Ermittlungen ziehen sich etwas schleppend dahin. Die Befragungen der Jugendlichen zeigen erst so nach und nach ein Bild über die Toten, das nicht sehr angenehm ist. Leider läuft bei der Polizei vieles nicht richtig, was die Ermittlungen nicht einfacher macht.
Mobbing ist ein brisantes Thema und die sozialen Medien machen es besonders leicht, jemand anderen fertig zu machen. Es ist schwierig dem zu entkommen, denn auch ein Orts- oder Schulwechsel machen dem furchtbaren Treiben kein Ende. In diesem Thriller werden sowohl Täter als auch Opfer beleuchtet.
Immer wieder gibt es Wendungen, welche dafür sorgen, dass man den Täter nicht ausfindig machen kann. Die Spannung wird also hochgehalten.
Mir hat dieser spannende und packende Thriller gut gefallen. ( )
