The stunning eighth installment in the Martin Beck mystery series
by Maj Sjowall and Per Wahloo is a masterful take on a classic
locked room mystery.
A young blonde in sunglasses robs a bank and kills a hapless
citizen. Across town, a corpse with a bullet shot through its heart
is found in a locked room-with no gun at the scene. The crimes seem
disparate, but to Martin Beck they are two pieces of the same
puzzle, and solving it becomes the one way he can escape the pains
of his failed marriage and the lingering effects of a near-fatal
bullet wound. Exploring the ramifications of egotism and intellect,
luck and accident, this tour de force of detection bears the
unmistakable substance and gravity of real life.
