The Tangle of ThreadsBarbarotti 10

The tenth and final instalment in the beloved ‘Barbarotti’ series by “the Godfather of Swedish Crime”

Barbarotti’s former boss, Inspector Asunander, rheumatic and reclusive, now lives in a well-run retirement home in the walled city of Visby, keeping notes on a thirty-year-old case that was either a murder or a strange disappearance. Unsolved, in any case. Peculiar circumstances — such as a pair of severed fingers and a discovery in the Gotland countryside — revive the bizarre story of Harry Krona and Marlene Horwath. What really happened, and why? Gunnar Barbarotti and Eva Backman, on the verge of retirement and a quiet life in northern Gotland, are reluctantly drawn in as assistants to their old superior in his investigation. With stakes that will prove higher than ever before.w The Tangle of Threads is the final novel featuring the duo Barbarotti and Backman.

‘Håkan Nesser writes entertainingly as always and it is a joy to follow the couple Barbarotti and Backman as they reason their way to possible solutions.’ Ölandsbladet
