Industry Reviews
"Kurt Wallander [is] that most human of all fictional detectives..." (Starred review.)
(07/15/2008)
"The Wallander series, which Mankell believes should be subtitled 'novels of Swedish anxiety,' are essential reading for all crime-fiction fans, and this collection adds an indispensable chapter to the saga." (Starred review.)
