Spannend bis zum Schluss: Wallander ist wieder da und diesmal ermittelt er im Ausland. Zwei Tote, die in einem Schlauchboot an die Küste Ystads getrieben werden, führen den schwedischen Komissar bei seinen Ermittlungen nach Lettland. Dort stößt er auf ein Netz aus Lügen, Korruption und Drogenhandel, bei dem auch die lettische Polizei nicht unbeteiligt ist. Wallander kann dabei nur sich selbst vertrauen.
Wie üblich ist auch in diesem Roman für Spannung gesorgt und Mankells Erzählstil ist gewohnt gut. Da die Handlung aber in Zeiten des Zusammenbruchs der Sowjetunion spielt, wirkt sie stellenweise etwas antiquiert.

I liked this even better than the first Wallander mystery (Faceless Killers). Mankell combines world politics, existential meanderings, family dysfunction, evocative descriptions, and ill-fated romance into a gripping mystery and a solid novel...I'll read more. ( )
