The masterful first novel in the Martin Beck series of mysteries by
the internationally renowned crime writing duo Maj Sjowall and Per
Wahloo, finds Beck hunting for the murderer of a lonely traveler.
On a July afternoon, a young woman's body is dredged from Sweden's
beautiful Lake Vattern. With no clues Beck begins an investigation
not only to uncover a murderer but also to discover who the victim
was. Three months later, all Beck knows is that her name was
Roseanna and that she could have been strangled by any one of
eighty-five people on a cruise. As the melancholic Beck narrows the
list of suspects, he is drawn increasingly to the enigma of the
victim, a free-spirited traveler with a penchant for casual sex,
and to the psychopathology of a murderer with a
distinctive--indeed, terrifying--sense of propriety..
