  • "Chief Inspector Van Veeteren knew that murder cases were never as open-and-shut as this one: Janek Mitter woke one morning with a brutal hangover and discovered his wife of three months lying facedown in the bathtub, dead. With only the flimsiest excuse as his defense, he is found guilty of a drunken crime of passion and imprisoned in a mental institution. But Van Veeteren{u2019}s suspicions about the identity of the killer are borne out when Mitter also becomes a murder victim. Now the chief inspector launches a full-scale investigation of the two slayings. But it may only be the unspoken secrets of the dead revealed in a mysterious letter that Mitter wrote shortly before his death that will finally allow Van Veeteren to unmask the killer and expose the shocking root of this sordid violence."
  • "Wie alles begann - Van Veeterens erster Fall Als Janek Mitter eines Morgens mit einem entsetzlichen Kater aufwacht, liegt seine Frau Eva ermordet in der Badewanne. Er ist sich sicher, dass er nicht der Mörder ist, aber beweisen kann er es nicht. Am Vorabend hatte er mit seiner Frau mächtig gezecht, und nun fehlt ihm die Erinnerung an einige Stunden ... Håkan Nesser, geboren 1950, ist einer der interessantesten und aufregendsten Krimiautoren Schwedens. Für seine Kriminalromane um Kommissar Van Veeteren und Inspektor Barbarotti erhielt er zahlreiche Auszeichnungen, sie sind in mehrere Sprachen übersetzt und wurden erfolgreich verfilmt. Daneben schreibt er Psychothriller, die in ihrer Intensität und atmosphärischen Dichte an die besten Bücher von Georges Simenon und Patricia Highsmith erinnern. 'Kim Novak badete nie im See von Genezareth' oder 'Und Piccadilly Circus liegt nicht in Kumla' gelten inzwischen als Klassiker in Schweden, werden als Schullektüre eingesetzt, und haben seinen Ruf als grossartiger Stilist nachhaltig begründet. Håkan Nesser lebt mit seiner Frau in Stockholm und auf Gotland."

  • "Janek Mitter stumbles into his bathroom one morning after a night of heavy drinking to find his beautiful young wife, Eva, floating dead in the bath, brutally murdered. Yet during his trial Mitter cannot summon a single memory of attacking Eva, nor a clue as to who could have killed her if he didn¡t. Only once he has been convicted and locked away in an asylum does he have a snatch of insight. Drawing a blank after exhaustive interviews, Chief Inspector Van Veeteren remains convinced that someone in the dead woman's life caused these tragic events. But the reasons for her speedy remarriage have died with her. And as he delves deeper, Van Veeteren realises the past never stops haunting the present."
