Faceless Killers by Henning Mankell
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

First book of the Inspector Kurt Wallander series, set in the Skane area of Sweden. He spends a lot of time driving from one small town to another. Lone homicide detective for Ystad and region, his personal life is a mess - wife left, daughter won't speak to him, father falling into dementia. This book reminds me most of Alex McKnight (Steve Hamilton's character) - loner detective, remote location. Highly recommended.
