I started reading 'The Troubled Man' by Henning Mankell today. It's familiar territory like pulling on a comfortable, well worn glove. It fits perfectly, it's comfortable. It is going back to an old friend, Kurt Wallander, and it is his final case apparently. 85 pages in and I am hooked. Inspector Wallander is one of the most wonderful creations in contemporary crime writing and Mankell is positioned in the first division of crime writing.
It's a book that you do not want to put down and it is a book that you don't want to finish. I have to make it last a few days at least....
