Title: In the Shadows - Arnaldur Indridason - book
Summary :
A sales representative is found in a small Reykjavik apartment, shot dead by a Colt bullet and branded with the word “SS” in blood on his forehead. Suspicion quickly falls on the foreign soldiers milling about the city in the summer of 1941. Two young men are in charge of the investigations: Flovent, the only investigator in the Icelandic criminal police, a former trainee at Scotland Yard, and Thorson, the Icelander born in Canada, designated as an investigator by the military because he is bilingual.
The influx of British and American soldiers is shaking up this island of fishermen and farmers, which is rapidly evolving towards modernity. Women are becoming emancipated. The Nazis, despite the dissolution of their party, have not given up on finding traces of their myths and Aryan purity on the island. Moreover, a visit from a great man is secretly awaited.
The investigation's many twists and turns paint a fascinating picture of Iceland during the "Situation," the occupation of young soldiers who sow unrest among the female population. They also reveal tenacious investigators, despised by the military authorities but determined not to allow themselves to be subjected to the expected culprits. In this gripping and addictive novel, the reader is as fascinated by the world embodied by the characters as by the unpredictable plot.

Title: After the Fire - Robert Goolrick - book
Summary :
If you liked Gone with the Wind ... Diana Cooke was born with the century, but her name goes back much further, to America's founding fathers. Descended from a distinguished lineage, she lives in Saratoga, a magnificent Virginia estate that is the pride of the family. But this house, like its name, is weighed down by two abysmal debts. The first is financial, and the only way to pay it off is through marriage. The second is deeper: the House of Cooke and the prestige of their name are built on the South's darkest sin: slavery. And that debt can only be repaid by a curse. Perhaps it is now approaching in the form of Captain Copperton. In this splendid novel, Robert Goolrick offers us a fable about love, debt, and the weight of our fathers' sin. After the fire is followed by an unpublished autobiographical novel, Three Lamentations .

Summary : That night, she said slowly, Lina saw the Furious Army pass by. And Herbier was there. And he was shouting. And three others too. Is it an association? The Furious Army, she repeated quietly. The Great Hunt. You don't know it? No, said Adamsberg, holding her astonished gaze. But you don't even know its name? The Mesnie Hellequin? she whispered. I'm sorry, said Adamsberg. Veyrenc, the Furious Army, do you know this gang? A look of intense surprise crossed Lieutenant Veyrenc's face. Your daughter really saw them? With the missing person? Where? Where they pass by our house. On the road to Bonneval. They've always passed by there. Veyrenc discreetly detained the commissioner. Jean-Baptiste, really, you've never heard of this? Adamsberg shook his head. Well, Danglard, he insisted. Why? Because, for all I know, it's the announcement of a shock. Perhaps a real shock. There's no doubt that the "cursed" siblings from the Normandy village will join Fred Vargas' galaxy of memorable characters. As for Momo-mèche-courte, he's the common thread of the double investigation led here by Commissioner Adamsberg, confronted by the immemorial Lord Hellequin, leader of the Furious Army.
