The shocking sixth novel in the Martin Beck mystery series by the
internationally renowned crime writing duo by Maj Sjowall and Per
Wahloo, finds Beck investigating a brutal assassination.
When Viktor Palmgren, a powerful Swedish industrialist is shot
during his after-dinner speech in the luxurious Hotel Savoy, it
sends a shiver down the spine of the international money markets
and terrifies the tiny town of Malmo. No one in the restaurant can
identify the gunman, and local police are sheepishly baffled.
That's when Beck takes over the scene and quickly picks through
Palmgren's background. What he finds is a web of vice so despicable
that it's hard for him to imagine who "wouldn't "want Palmgren
dead, but that doesn't stop him and his team of dedicated
detectives from tackling one of their most intriguing cases yet.
