Another Great Wallender Story
Henning Mankell's books weave a spell making other books seem flat and unappealing. In The White Lioness the disappearance of a wife and mother sets off waves that take us into South African history and political events and eventually back to Sweden. I have to admit that I did not like this book quite as much as some of The Wallander stories, but I treasured it especially knowing that it would be the last of the Mankell ever.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
