Faceless Killers

Faceless Killers by Henning Mankell

The first of the Wallander books.  This is of course a translation from the Swedish original however the quality of the translation ensures that it flows and reads like it was an English Language original text. As a lover of the dective genre this book did not disappoint.  It is excellently written and gives one a flavour of the Swedish way of life as well of course a gripping novel.  As a Wallander fan (bothe the Branagh and Swedish versions of the series) this book did not disappoint.  I had also seen this episode on the BBC version however it was still gripping until the end.  I do recomend this and suggest you try it. 8 out of 10
