#122. The Return Of The Dancing Master by Henning Mankell


Title:
The Return Of The Dancing Master
Author:
Henning Mankell
Genre:
Scandinavian Crime Fiction/Police Procedural
Synopsis:
A retired policeman is found brutally beaten to death and the investigation uncovers a dark past.
Verdict:
The characters’ problems and the use of the plot to explore current social issues both worked really well. The difficulty the lead character has focusing on events due to his own circumstances frames things well and also gives a personal flavour to the things he discovers.
