Gisli's links with the far-right organisation, Hammer of Thor, lead Andri and Hinrika to suspect two young local farmers – Torfi and Skuli – of involvement in Finnur's murder. But rather than face questioning, Skuli escapes into the mountains on horseback. In his absence Torfi confesses to Finnur's murder, but Andri does not believe him. Thorhildur will still not talk to Andri and has begun going out without telling her aunt so that she can hang around with Finnur's son Aron.
