"Kjell Eriksson's crime novels are among the very best." —Henning Mankell
A Swedish county commissioner walks out of a high-level meeting and disappears. Many years later, one of the town's natives is convinced that he's caught a glimpse of the missing man while traveling in Bangalore, India. When the rumors reach his hometown, a veteran police officer stumbles across a seemingly unrelated case. Ann Lindell, Eriksson's series detective, must investigate a severed female foot found where a striking number of inhabitants are single men. But the owner of the house where the victim believed to have lived is no longer able to answer any questions....

A page turner for sure, but that isn't saying near enough. Very complex what with two murders only vaguely related; yet the author manages to keep everything sorted out so there is never confusion. The main character is complex and touching, yet in the end, nothing about her is resoleved--possibly because nothing can be resolved. Very sad.
