Henning Mankell’s novels have been translated into forty languages and have sold more than thirty million copies worldwide. He is the first winner of the Ripper Award (the new European prize for crime fiction) and has also received the Glass Key and Golden Dagger awards. He has written nine novels and a collection of short stories featuring Kurt Wallander. Several of these mysteries were adapted into a PBS television series starring Kenneth Branagh and the most recent book in the series, The Troubled Man, is a New York Times bestseller. Mankell divides his time between Sweden and Mozambique.
"Marvelously astute about behavior and motivation, Mankell has
created in Wallander a shambling central character whose
unconventional personality is at least as compelling as the crimes
he investigates." —Los Angeles Times
FACELESS KILLERS
“Intelligent, moving and topical, this is a thriller of the very
best kind.”
—The Times U.K.
THE DOGS OF RIGA
“A tale rich in gritty local culture.... The plot is satisfyingly
seamy, Wallander is, as always, discombobulated and astute.”
—Los Angeles Times
THE WHITE LIONESS
“A first-class thriller.”
—The New York Times Book Review
