MATTHEW’S ARM RESTED LIGHTLY ON THÓRA’S SHOULDERS AS they stood on the beach watching the surf. She had asked him to take a short walk with her before they went to sleep, because the smell of disinfectant was still in her nostrils and would give her a migraine if she wasn’t careful. She closed her eyes and was about to say something romantic when her mobile rang.

“Anyone would think the hotel was the only place around here where there’s no mobile reception,” sighed Matthew.

Thóra answered it quickly.

“Hi, Thóra. Sorry to call you so late,” said a female voice. “It’s Dísa from next door.”

“Oh, hello,” Thóra said, surprised. Had her house caught fire?

“I did try to call earlier, but your phone must have been switched off,” said Dísa apologetically.

“No, I’m on Snæfellsnes and the signal’s patchy,” Thóra said, hoping her neighbor would get to the point. “It comes and goes.”

“Yes, I knew you were out of town. That’s why I called you. I saw somebody driving away in your SUV with the trailer, at about eleven. I thought it was rather strange. Did you lend it to anyone?”

“No,” said Thóra, perplexed. “Thanks, Dísa. I’ll check whether anyone borrowed it, and if not, I’ll call the police. Thanks again.”

She hung up and saw that six text messages were waiting for her. She opened the most recent one. It said, “call me asap—gylfi left and took sóley with him.”

Thóra let out a laugh that turned into a groan. She looked at Matthew and said wearily, “Never have children. Stick with that little girl in Africa.”
