inulro22. Faceless Killers by Henning Mankell
The first Wallander book, but the third that I've read.
I loved this a lot more than the other two[1]; whether because it's shorter and more tightly plotted, or because it's a different translator (I checked - the Wallander books have been translated by different people in random order at random dates), I'm not sure. I think the latter, because I really enjoyed the language and flow of this one.
It's heartening to read that a lot of Swedes hate winter as much as I do.
I will be moving the rest of the series up my list of priorities.
[1] For the record, The White Lionness and Firewall.
