About book Huesos En El Jardin (2004)

This is basically a novella written by the author many years ago as an incentive to be given to readers who purchased a crime book. This story features Kurt Wallander, and his stumbling onto a crime scene when he is looking for a house to buy after his retirement. Two bodies were found on the property Wallander was looking at, and the story concerns his search for a killer from 50 years before the story takes place. It was, I thought, very interesting.Also included at the end of the book is an interview with Henning Mankell and his thoughts on the character of Kurt Wallander, as a way for him to express his views upon the changes in society. I enjoyed this interview very much as it gives a lot of insight into the thought processes of the writer. I agree wholeheartedly with him that regardless of e-books, the existence of print upon paper will never die out. This short novella published years ago in Holland was the first Inspector Wallender that Henning Mankell wrote, though it shows Wallwnder fetting old and on his way to retirement, a house in the country with a dog. In looking at a house in the country offered by his colleague Matinson, Wallender comes upon a skeleton and the discovery of who this skeleton was in life and what happened forms the plot of the book.What is maybe even more interesting in the afterward by Mankell about his most famous character, his Wallender books, why he wrote them and why there will be no more was even more fascinating. Highly recommended and I will miss Inspector Wallender.
