Wrapped this last night and found it to be quite enjoyable. Mankell's prose (or at least the translation thereof) was simple, perhaps even deceptively so.
Overall it was a very good police procedural and reading many of these in a row really makes one realize just how much of policing appears to be leaps of logic and luck rather than following paths through to the end.
This is very good, so I will probably read a few more in the series. I'm a little concerned with the silliness presented in the BBC series because it doesn't seem like it carries over to the books, but who knows. They may go a bit insane later on.
