A Swedish crime writer as thrilling as Mankell, a detective as
compelling as Wallander . . . Hakan Nesser's third title in the Van
Veeteren series is the dark and compelling The Return. An
unmissable hospital appointment is looming for Inspector Van
Veeteren when a corpse is found rolled in a rotting carpet by a
young child playing in a local beauty spot. Missing head and limbs,
the torso is too badly decomposed for forensic identification - bar
one crucial detail . . . Circumstantial evidence soon points to a
local man, a double murderer who disappeared nine months before,
shortly after being released on parole; a local hero turned monster
after being convicted of killing two women over a span of three
decades. Recuperating after an operation, Van Veeteren is
nevertheless directing investigations from his hospital bed, for he
is convinced that only the innocence of this new victim can be the
motive for his murder. But the two women have been dead for long
enough for any evidence to have died with them . . . And is he
simply on the wrong track completely? The Return is followed by the
fourth title in the series, Woman with Birthmark.
