The excitement around Scandinavian crime fiction coming in the wake of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (MacLehose Press, 2008) has been largely centered on Sweden - and for good reason, as revealed here. The chill of the country's northern climate here combines with Sweden's rich cultural traditions (and contradictions) to create riveting stories by some of the country's very best contemporary authors. Featuring brand-new stories translated from Swedish by: Unni Drougge, Inger Edelfeldt, Carl-Michael Edenborg, Ake Edwardson, Torbjorn Elensky, Inger Frimansson and more.
