On 7 April , Arnar travels to Iceland to talk to his brother Rafn , a high-powered lawyer , and other acquaintances , to try to understand better what was going on during Iceland 's boom . Rafn is a case-study of a patriotic Icelander who is bullish about Iceland 's prospects . Arnar meets his ex-wife Þorbjörg at a birthday party ; she and her husband worked for HK banki during the boom , and she is now unemployed while her husbands awaits impending prosecution . Arnar realises his brother is involved in helping the business associates Einar Þorsteinn , his father Jón , and one Vigfús , all closely tied to the Icelandic bank Sleipnir , to get € 600,000 in cash out of Iceland . Arnar manages to install spyware on his brother 's office computer . He receives a package from an anonymous informant containing lists of Luxembourg-connected companies with names featuring ' Brák ' ( ' debris , oil slick ' ) . Early in Arnar 's trip , Árni Marínósson phones from Panama , promising to meet Arnar in Iceland with new information , but is reported lost at sea in Panama on 11 April . However , on 13 April , Árni 's sister contacts Arnar to say she has received a package for him from Árni . It contains details regarding the network of Brák-companies , their legal ownership , and transactions . ' Brák er interessant af því að þeir sem stjörna Brák eru þeir sem í alvörunni ráða á Íslandi ' ( ' Brák is interesting because the men who run Brák are the men who are really in charge in Iceland ' ) , writes Árni ( p. 297 ) . While in Iceland , Arnar is followed by a man who turns out to be a Latvian criminal called ( inter alia ) Juris Kalnis , and receives a threatening letter and phone call , the latter of which implies that Hulda was murdered . Meanwhile , Dmitri and other sources suggest that some Russians lost badly in the Crash because HK banki was holding bonds on their behalf . Before returning home on 21 April , Arnar and Þorbjörg visit the 2010 eruptions of Eyjafjallajökull
