A brilliant tale of suspense and substance that dedicated mystery readers will want to savor."--<i>Washington Post</i> <br><b> </b><br>"A terrific police procedural."--<i>Dallas Morning News</i> <br><i> </i><br>"Mankell's new book is an original but still chock-a-block with gory crime combined with hints of the late Stieg Larsson's social concern and John le Carré's international intrigue."--<i>Pittsburgh Post-Gazette</i><br><b><i> </i></b><br>"Absorbing. . . .

Remarkable."--<i>Philadelphia Inquirer</i></p>
