Thriller
The incredible fourth novel in the Martin Beck mystery
series by the internationally renowned crime writing duo Maj
Sjöwall and Per Wahlöö, finds Martin Beck heading a major
manhunt in pursuit of a mass-murderer. On a cold and rainy Stockholm night, nine bus riders are
gunned down by a mysterious assassin. The press portrays it
as a freak attack and dubs the killer a madman. But
Superintendent Martin Beck thinks otherwise—one of his most
ambitious young detectives was among those killed—and he
suspects it was more than coincidence. Working on a hunch,
Beck seeks out the girlfriend of the murdered detective, and
with her help Beck reconstructs the steps that led to his
murder. The police comb the country for the killer, only to
find that this attack may be connected to a case that has
been unsolved for years.
