Henning Mankell was an internationally known Swedish crime writer, children's author and playwright. He was best known for his literary character Kurt Wallander.
Mankell split his time between Sweden and Mozambique. He was married to Eva Bergman, Swedish director and daughter of Ingmar Bergman.
I am not really sure I enjoyed this… the start and end were good, I just did hell with the characters especially Wallender. He felt like a low rent Harry Hole! Do I try another book in the series?
