• Nominated for the Icelandic Literary Prize 2025

After a long, dark winter and a spring that was, to put it mildly, a complete disaster, the sun has finally arrived in Reykjavík. The twins Inga and Baldur are on summer vacation, with everything that comes with it, along with a few unexpected twists, such as a rescue mission for a deep-sea shrimp. It is during this very mission that their curiosity is sparked when they discover a mysterious message in a bottle, bobbing half-submerged in the sea near their home. They decide to investigate the matter in their own unique way, and the everyday adventure begins!

“A funny and irresistibly beautiful everyday story, filled with colourful, warm, and memorable characters. Readers will undoubtedly enjoy the story itself, as well as the book’s high-quality design, which offers continued enjoyment even after the reading is finished.”
