An Event in Autumn: a Kurt Wallander Mystery
“He had slept badly after waking up on the sofa. And to make things worse, his electric razor had broken. He was unshaven and felt dirty. Sitting around the table were the people he was used to working alongside. He had been working with some of them for over fifteen years. It occurred to him that these were people who made up the content of a large proportion of his life. He was now the one who had been working longer than anybody else in the Ystad CID. Once upon a time he’d been the newcomer.
Those present at the meeting, apart from Wallander himself, were Nyberg, Martinson and the chief of police, Lisa Holgersson. She was the first female boss Wallander had worked for.

It became clear to him that she might well be the best boss he had ever had. Over the years that ensued he had found no reason to recons...ider that judgment, even if they had occasionally had fierce disagreements.MoreLess
