The execution-style murder of a Swedish housewife looks like a simple case, except that there is no obvious suspect. Wallander follows a lead on a determined stalker, but when his alibi turns out to be airtight, Wallander begins to realize that what seemed a simple crime of passion is actually far more complex and dangerous. Eventually, his search uncovers an assassination plot, and Wallander soon finds himself in a tangle with the secret police and with a ruthless foreign agent.
A riveting tale of international intrigue with compelling insights into the sinister side of modern life, The WhiteLioness keeps you on the knife edge of suspense.

“This exciting novel is both a meticulous police procedural and a tense, believable political thriller…Hill is an award-winning narrator, and it’s easy to see why. He keeps the pace moving briskly and finds voices for the characters that help define their personalities.”
(Kliatt)“Dick Hill translates Mankell’s minimalist narrative style without flashiness and generates tension at the same time, an impressive feat. Hill seamlessly switches viewpoints and accents among Swedish, Russian, and South African characters with absolute believability.”
