Undertrial. Interrogation. A novel by Oddný Eir Ævarsdóttir.
Íris is an outstanding virologist who conducts research at the Surtsey Research Laboratory in the Westman Islands. There, she studies the effects of the environment on an unknown virus that was found on the young and uninhabited Surtsey. When Smári, her childhood friend and childhood sweetheart, is hired as her assistant in the laboratory, the boss Aron, Íris's ex-husband, becomes uneasy and the air becomes a mixture of treachery. Smári has in his possession an unusual measuring device, a kind of lie detector, which he is developing to measure integrity and human values. He is allowed to experiment with the device in the laboratory and when the virus stops working for inexplicable reasons, ideas are sparked that Smári's device is to blame. Underworld is a love story that deals in an original way with integrity and betrayal, ancient wisdom and new, a vicious circle of violence - and the protection of an untouched island against aggression and underworld.
