A gripping story of high finance and power and the terrifying abuse of it. The tension builds gradually accelerating to the sort of book you just can’t put down. It is terrific. It is the final missing piece of the Kurt Wallander series of which there are a further nine. It stands alone but for those of you who know Kurt, it does answer some questions, and for those of you who don’t, you really should.
