The epic conclusion to Camilla Läckberg and Henrik Fexeus' pulse-raising Swedish crime thriller trilogy 'Hello Niklas Sockenberg. We hope you have been satisfied with our services during this time, which has now reached its end. You have 14 days, 1 hour and 12 minutes left to live' It is December in Stockholm and Sweden's Minister of Justice is under threat. An anonymous note has told him he has four days left to live. At the same time, a human skeleton is found in the Stockholm subway, belonging to a high-ranking financier. Police inspector Mina Dabiri's team, still recovering from the traumatic incident last summer that ended in the death of a colleague, calls in mentalist Vincent Walder to help with the case. For Vincent, it feels as if the world is increasingly closing in on him. When another pile of bones is found underground, the group is once again put to the test - what is going on in the tunnels deep under Stockholm? And who taunting the minister?

Lisbeth Salander--the fierce, unstoppable girl with the dragon tattoo--has disappeared. She's sold her apartment in Stockholm. She's gone silent electronically. She's told no one where she is. And no one is aware that at long last she's got her primal enemy, her twin sister, Camilla, squarely in her sights. Mikael Blomkvist is trying to reach Lisbeth. He needs her help unraveling the identity of a man who lived and died on the streets in Stockholm--a man who does not exist in any official records and whose garbled last words hinted at possible damaging knowledge of people in the highest echelons of government and industry. In his pocket was a crumpled piece of paper with Blomkvist's phone number on it. Once again, Salander and Blomkvist will come to each other's aid, moving in tandem toward the truths they each seek. In the end, it will be Blomkvist--in a moment of unimaginable self-sacrifice--who will make it possible for Lisbeth to face the most important battle of her life, and, finally, to put her past to rest.

Fedrik Welin, médecin à la retraite, vit reclus sur son île de la Baltique. Une nuit, une lumière aveuglante le tire du sommeil. Au matin, la maison héritée de ses grands-parents n'est plus qu'une ruine fumante. Réfugié dans la vieille caravane de son jardin, il s'interroge : à soixante-dix ans, seul, dépossédé de tout, a-t-il encore une raison de vivre ? Mais c'est compter sans les révélations de sa fille Louise et, surtout, sans l'apparition d'une femme, Lisa Modin, journaliste de la presse locale. Tandis que l'hiver prend possession de l'archipel, tout va basculer de façon insensible jusqu'à l'inimaginable dénouement. Après l'immense succès des Chaussures italiennes, auquel il fait suite, Les Bottes suédoises brosse le portrait en clair-obscur d'un homme tenaillé par le doute, le regret, la peur face à l'ombre grandissante de la mort - mais aussi la soif d'amour et le désir -, d'un être amené par les circonstances à revisiter son destin et à reprendre goût à la vie. Tel est l'ultime roman de Henning Mankell : une oeuvre d'une sobriété élégiaque et poignante, traversée et portée par la beauté crépusculaire des paysages.
