ReviewsPraise for Henning Mankell "An arresting writer . . . [Mankell] understands and probes the underside of everyday living in an elegant and artful way. . . . The result is writing that walks a line between ephemeral and everlasting." -- The Washington Post "[Mankell's] Swedish detective, Inspector Kurt Wallander, is one of the most impressive creations in crime fiction today. . . . An old-fashioned moral force and sense of disquiet of the sort rarely found in contemporary crime fiction." -- The Guardian, Praise for Henning Mankell "An arresting writer . . .

Henkel Manning is the best European writer of detective 🕵️♀️ stories. The novel was original published as The Grave in Swedish and was a gift for his loyal readers to download. None of the original download sites are still functioning so you will have to buy the book. It’s worth it!
Lot of Kurt Wallender books plus one without Kurt. Books in excellent condition. Hard to find these books down here in Virginia. Can buy new but rare used. Very pleased with purchase and am enjoying reading them.
