Alguien se dedica a asesinar niñas en los ya no tan pacíficos parques de Estocolmo: las asesina después de haber abusado de ellas. Los ciudadanos están preocupados y temerosos. El inspector de policía Martin Beck tiene dos testigos: un insensible maleante que no piensa hablar y un niño de tres años que no puede decir demasiado.
This was a good one. A short, concise detective novel. I didn't even particularly care for any of the characters, Martin Beck was competent and okay as were all the others. Even the case and investigation was rudimentary and somewhat boring (workaday stuff), but the story flowed and didn't waste words. Just an all-round good book. ( )
This Martin Beck novel opens slowly with a man watching Stockholm awaken. The police department is working on a series of muggings, when the first in a series of young girls are murdered and raped. The police are getting nowhere on the muggings until help comes from an unexpected source, which triggers a vague memory of Martin's, leading the way to the perp. Liked Jo Nesbo's introduction. ( )
