The Man From Beijing

I love the Wallander series (and if you haven't watched the original Swedish versions on TV, you should try them too!) and this one-off 553 page crime mystery is another well-crafted piece from Henning Mankell. It's a chillingly probable story about China's emerging game-plan but woven into another story that started in 1863 and crosses several continents. Horrific in parts but, for me, unputdownable.
