It is lovely to hear that someone outside our country can get a window into our history through a mystery novel. <br /><br />It is one of the great aspects of crime fiction that it is always rooted in time and place. So many of us also like to read Swedish crime fiction (in translation) for the same reason -- not only Stieg Larsson & Henning Mankell, but also Hakan Nesser, Mari Jungstedt, Asa Larsson, Kjell Eriksson, right back to Maj Sjowall & Per Wahloo (all available in Australia if you look in the right place).<br /><br />Happy reading!

I'm so glad you'd like to meet Rowland Sinclair again - I feel the same way, which is probably why I keep writing about him. It's like spending time with an old friend.
