Big Brother is a story of revenge and justice, of love and loss, violence and old sins. A black-clad figure attacks a man by Lake Rauðavatn and then vanishes like a ghost into the night. No one knows who the attacker is or what his motives are. Emil Þorsteinsson, a journalist, believes the attack is connected to others in Reykjavík and that the black-clad figure systematically stalks its victims. Emil's investigation reveals that the attacker believes he is acting on behalf of the bereaved; he wants to dispense justice for them.
