Wallander is a flawed but deeply human detective, in these terrifying tales based on the award-winning novels by Henning Mankell. Set in the dramatic and beautiful landscape of southern Sweden, this series consists of three compelling murder mysteries including Sidetracked, about an apparent suicide linked to the brutal murder of a former politician, Firewall, where two seemingly separate incidents lead to one conspiracy, and One Step Behind, when three teenagers are found murdered, each with a bullet to the head. Baffling crimes and apparently motiveless murders lead to surprising and shocking discoveries in these noir thrillers. - Baker & Taylor
