I really enjoy this series featuring Kurt Wallander, and this story is no exception. Short and to the point, the book tells the story of what happens when Wallander discovers the hand of a corpse sticking up out of the dirt in the garden at the house he was thinking of buying. A surprise villain and some last-minute danger finish off the mystery nicely.
