Book Synopsis

Retired Chief of the National Crime Police and Swedish Security Service Lars Martin Johansson has just suffered a stroke.



Trade Review
Persson is more authentic than Stieg Larsson. * La Repubblica, Italy *
Persson remains unthreatened as the King of Swedish crime writing * Kvällsposten, Sweden *
Persson combines the humor of Van Veeteren, Håkan Nesser's hero with the energy of Henning Mankell's detective Kurt Wallander. * Trouw, Netherlands *
Read the book for its teeming sarcasm, its humor and its portrait of a dying detective and his tender, almost beautiful, relationships to friends and family – and perhaps to get a sharpened view of morals and revenge. * Fyns Amtsavis, Denmark *
