      Maybe it is an icelandic name I wouldn't know, but I do know that it's also a Swedish name. Gunnarsson is a pretty common surname here in Sweden and Gunnar is a pretty common first name here as well.

    1) *Grey/dark colors at all times is a must.*
    2) *Pretty much everyone is miserable, no levity or humor is allowed.*
    3) *The protagonist will be borderline autistic or something akin to that.*
    4) *The protagonist will have a child that they want to connect with, but are unable to.*
    5) *The protagonist, if male, will constantly use profanities.*
    6) *The protagonist may have a romantic interest, but this relationship will turn sour by the end of the story.*
    7) *The protagonist suffers from some kind of addiction.*
    8) *The murderer is an innocuous friend/ally of one of the main characters.*
    9) *The motive for the murder is always sexual in nature.*
    10) *By the end everyone will be worse off than they were at the beginning.*

    One of the most hideous serial kilers ever. He single handedly decimated the population of Helgasund by at least 22%...
    Edit:
    It has come to my attention, that my analysis of these murders sparked an extremely important debate about some semantical and mathematical problems in my statement.
    I am very glad for some of your thoughtful input and I am honored for this chance to collaborate with some of the most relevant intellectuals of our time. Certainly you, aswell as me, must have many other pressing matters to attend.
    So let me attempt a re-evaluation of the situation:
    Let x be the current population of Helgasund with x >= 8 (previously I assumed 7)
    Let x(n-1) be the population before the killings with x(n-1) = x + dx
    Let dx be the number of people murdered with dx = x(n-1) - x >= 2
    Let p be the decrease in population = (dx/x(n-1)) * 100%
    If we minimize the values x and dx, we get x(n-1) = 10 and p = 20%
    If we maximize x and dx we get x=lim(x) = dx=lim(dx) = infinity and therefore lim(x(n-1)) = 2*infinity and p = 50% (ThIs mUsT DeFiNeTLY bE TrU, BEeCaUsE METH)
    If we maximize x and minimize dx we get x=lim(x) = inf and dx = 2 and therefore p=0%
    If we minimize x and maximize dx we get x=8, dx= inf and and p = 100%
    p can not = 0 or 100%
    Therefore we can DEFINITELY conclude, that the killer would at least have vigintinated and at most quinquagintimated the population....
    Please enlighten me if I'm wrong :*

In this skit we see that it is indeed also a award winning acting of Alasdair Beckett-King.
