Customer Review

I like Henning Mankell, who leads us in the mists of Scania with his neurotic detective, the famous Kurt Wallander.

This time Kurt Wallander is in the doldrums and is on sick leave for several months and he is about to resign a friend of his who is a lawyer comes to visit the misty beaches in Denmark where he found refuge. This friend he expressed his doubts about the accident suffered by his father (also confessed) a few weeks ago. 15 days after his visit this lawyer is also a victim of the accident. ' Wallander then returns to service and return to his police to address this survey high risk because it affects almost one of the most influential businessmen in Sweden.

An exciting investigation, Wallander is very endearing, brilliant detective and head full of doubts from both mule who always flirts with deep neurasthenia. No action per se, but the events follow each other relentlessly in this book, to keep us in suspense. I also like the background: this Sweden's hard to remain true to its model of social democracy and whose ideals are crumbling as and as globalization happens ....
