En vinterdag i 2008 forsvinner en pensjonert marineoffiser under sin daglige spasertur. For Kurt Wallander blir saken også personlig. Håkan von Enke er nemlig Linda Wallanders svigerfar og farfar til hennes lille datter. Selv da saken henlegges av politiet, klarer ikke Wallander å la være å engasjere seg. Og når Enkes hustru Louise også forsvinner like sporløst, blir engasjementet om mulig enda større. Trådene leder bakover i tid til den Kalde krigen, høyreekstremisme og hemmeligheter fra det gamle Øst-Europa. Dette er den første boken om Kurt Wallander på ti år.

Henning Mankell was born in Stockholm, Sweden, the son of a judge. He grew up in the towns of Sveg and Borås. His grandfather, also called Henning Mankell (1868–1930), was a well-known composer. At the age of 20, Mankell was the assistant director at the Riks Theater in Stockholm, and he was also writing. In the 1970s he moved to Norway, where he lived with a woman who was a member of the Maoist Communist Labour Party, although he never officially joined the Party. He moved to Africa and lived in several African countries, and in 1985 he founded the Avenida Theater in Maputo, Mozambique, where he continues to spend about half of every year.
