Kurt Wallander is twenty one and new to the police force - and he won't let anything stand in the way of solving his first murder case
Wallander finds his neighbour dead: a revolver in his hand, and a bullet through his head.
Suspicious about the circumstances surrounding the apparently open and shut case of suicide, Wallander starts an off-the-books investigation - only to find that following his instincts is a very dangerous thing to do.
Discover the case that began Kurt Wallander's career - first published in The Pyramid, a collection of short stories featuring Wallander.
OUT NOW: An Event in Autumn - a new, never before published Wallander novella.
