The dogs of Riga

Henning Mankell, (1948-2015)

Laurie Thompson, (1938-2015)

Inspector Kurt Wallander and his team at the Ystad police station in Skne, southern Sweden, receive an anonymous tip-off that comes to pass a few days later: a life raft is washed up on a beach. In it are two men, dressed in expensive suits, shot dead. The dead men were Eastern European criminals, victims of what seems to have been a gangland hit. But as the case soon takes on a sinister turn, Wallander finds himself in Riga, Latvia. There he is plunged into a frozen, alien world of police surveillance, scarcely veiled threats and lies. Some strong language. 2001. (Kurt Wallander ; 2).
