Synopsis

Another mesmerising and brilliant mystery from Sweden's renowned crime writer. It is February, 1991. Inspector Kurt Wallander and his team receive a call to the Ystad police station. A dinghy has washed ashore, carrying a hideous cargo: two men, dressed in expensive suits, shot dead. The dead men were Latvian criminals, and this time Wallander will unwittingly become involved in the affairs of the nation so close to Sweden, yet still emerging from behind the Iron Curtain. When another murder is committed, Wallander agrees to travel to Riga to help solve the crimes. There he finds himself plunged into a nightmare world of police surveillance, veiled threats, and lies. Alone, determined to discover the truth and pursued by the shadowy figures of the secret police, Wallander will test his bravery to the limits - and he will also find love.
