“I was not always so devastated. As a child, I experienced all the feelings: anger, hatred, love, and sadness. I guess I've experienced them in such numbers that I just don't have them anymore. This insensitivity in my body and in my soul causes me to do things that would seem disgusting to some. But I don't care. I seem to have lost all my emotions except the boiling, bubbling, flaming anger that I can’t stop.”
At first, the disappearance of single mother Marianne Thorsdottir is not of interest to the residents of Akranes. She suffered from depression, periodically went on a banquet, could not cope with the upbringing of her daughter without the support of social workers. . .
Police and witnesses agree that the woman died voluntarily. But seven months later, her body is found with traces of violent death. Police officer Elma and her colleagues take on a case that becomes increasingly complex as the number of suspects grows and light is shed on Marianne's past.
Can Elma find the truth in the chorus of witnesses? In the chorus of girls who lie?
