Description
It is Midsummer’s Eve, three young friends gather in a wood. In the still-sunlit, Scandanavian dusk, they don costumes joyfully to enact a kind of masque. The hidden watcher soon brings their performance to an end. His approach is careful; his aim is perfect – three bullets, three corpses. The murderer, then, carefully photographs the grisly tableau.
At the Ystad police station, Inspector Wallander is at last at liberty to attend to his deteriorating health, but his peace of mind is shattered when one of his colleagues is murdered. An unknown killer is on the loose, and the police’s only lead is a photograph of three dead young people in costume. Forced to dig more deeply than he would have wanted into the personal life of one of his colleagues, Wallander’s investigation reveals something none of his team could ever have imagined.
