When archaeologist Louise Cantor’s son Henrik is found dead in his flat, she refuses to believe it was suicide. Clues that only a mother could detect lead her to believe something more sinister took place. Henrik had kept many things back from her and she is shocked to learn he had contracted HIV. The only lead is a letter and photograph from Henrik’s girlfriend in Mozambique. Louise’s quest to unravel the mystery surrounding her son’s death takes her to Africa.

Wie die Jahre vergehen: Kurt Wallander lebt inzwischen auf dem Land, seine Tochter Linda ist verheiratet und hat ein Kind. Bei der Geburtstagsfeier ihres Schwiegervaters Håkan erfährt Wallander erstmals von dessen Zeit als Marineoberst. Als kurz darauf Håkan und seine Frau spurlos verschwinden, verstrickt sich Wallander in einen Fall, dessen Spuren bis in den Kalten Krieg zurückreichen. Wenn Tatort-Kommissar Axel Milberg liest, steigert er mit untrüglichem Gespür für Mankells subtile Dramatik die Spannung bis zum atemberaubenden Finale.

Joel is growing up. He is getting interested in girls. Just look at his New Year's resolutions: 1 - to see a naked lady; 2 - to toughen himself up so that he can live to be a hundred; and 3 - to see the sea. They all look pretty impossible for a motherless boy in Northern Sweden. Especially as his sailor dad is keen to drown his sadness in drink, and all the local matrons are narrowly watching the pair of them.

At three p.m. on a Saturday afternoon in 1911, Oskar Johansson is caught in a blast in an industrial accident. The local newspaper reports him dead, but they are mistaken. Because Oskar Johansson is a born survivor. Though crippled, Oskar finds the strength to go on living and working. The Rock Blaster charts his long professional life - his hopes and dreams, sorrows and joys. His relationship with the woman whose love saved him, with the labour movement that gave him a cause to believe in, and with his children, who do not share his ideals.

La quinta inchiesta del commissario Wallander. Mentre gli svedesi sono incollati ai televisori per seguire il campionato del mondo di calcio, per Wallander la festa si trasforma in un incubo. Nella magnifica estate nordica una ragazza si cosparge di benzina e si dà fuoco in un campo di colza in fiore. È l’inizio di una terribile serie di omicidi: come un indiano sul piede di guerra, un brutale assassino uccide silenziosamente e strappa lo scalpo al nemico sconfitto.

Men Joel får uppleva just det som han alltid drömt om: han träffar sin mamma Jenny. En kväll går han ner till den frusna älven. Stjärnorna tindrar och han tycker sig se egendomliga märken efter hundtassar i snön. Spåren leder över älven, söderut, bort och förbi de ruvande granåsarna. Och då förstår Joel. Hunden som han en gång såg, den visade honom en väg. Och nu ska han följa den.
