Í ágúst 1956 hverfur ung stúlka, Lára Marteinsdóttir, úr vist í Viðey og eftir það spyrst ekkert til hennar. Áratugum saman hvílir mál Láru þungt á íslensku þjóðinni og engin skýring kemur fram á hvarfi hennar. Í ágúst 1986 fer ungur blaðamaður að grafast fyrir um þetta dularfulla mannshvarf – með ófyrirsjáanlegum afleiðingum. 
Hér bjóða Ragnar Jónasson og Katrín Jakobsdóttir lesendum í ferðalag á vit sumarsins þegar Reykjavík átti 200 ára afmæli, Bylgjan og Stöð 2 voru að fara í loftið og leiðtogafundur Reagans og Gorbatsjovs stóð fyrir dyrum. Og þetta sumar komu líka fram óvæntar vísbendingar um afdrif Láru Marteinsdóttur.

Reykjavik

Siglufjordur: an idyllically quiet fishing village on the northernmost tip of Iceland, accessible only via a small mountain tunnel. Ari Thor Arason: a local policeman, whose tumultuous past and uneasy relationships with the villagers continue to haunt him. The peace of this close-knit community is shattered by the murder of a policeman - shot at point-blank range in the dead of night in a deserted house. With a killer on the loose and the dark arctic winter closing in, it falls to Ari Thor to piece together a puzzle that involves tangled local politics, a compromised new mayor, and a psychiatric ward in Reykjavik, where someone is being held against their will. Then a mysterious young woman moves to the area, on the run from something she dare not reveal, and it becomes all too clear that tragic events from the past are weaving a sinister spell that may threaten them all. Dark, chilling and complex, Nightblind is an extraordinary thriller from an undeniable new talent.
