Klappentext zu „Depths “
October 1914: the destroyer Svea emerged from the Stockholm archipelago bearing south-south-east. On board was Lars Tobiasson-Svartman, a naval engineer charged with making depth soundings for the Swedish navy. He is obsessed with measurement and precision, instincts reflected in his comfortable but cold relationship with his wife.

Rezension zu „Depths “
"Razor-sharp... Mankell is, without doubt, one of the most impressive crime writers at work today" Guardian "Mesmerically fascinating" Daily Telegraph "A terse, gripping dissection of a broken man whose private morality is as barren as the frozen wastes that betray his destiny" Times Literary Supplement "An atmospheric and chilling portrait of a disturbed mind" Observer "A noirish psychological thriller, steeped in eerie premonitions and symbolism, in prose that's as cold, empty and pitiless as the landscape it describes" Metro
