Wallander has to be one of the finest detectives in contemporary crime fiction.

It has arrived safely, many thanks! There's little doubt I will enjoy it. Loved the postcard too!
I'm horrified that it's taken me so long to get round to reading this, but it was well worth the wait!
Sysnopsis from Amazon:
In 1992, in peaceful Southern Sweden, a young housewife, pillar of the Methodist church, disappears and is later found murdered, execution style. Inspector Kurt Wallander and his team are called in to investigate. It is a case with its roots far away, in Apartheid South Africa.
Because of having been brought up in Africa myself (Malawi), I always find books with an African connection have a special appeal, so this was a winner all round. I hadn't realised before, that Henning Mankell now lives in Africa and has written "non Wallender" novels set in Africa. I must investigate further.
