A disillusioned Inspector Kurt Wallander is thrown back into the fray when he becomes both hunter and hunted. Crestfallen, dejected, and spiraling into an alcohol-fuelled depression after killing a man in the line of duty, Inspector Wallander has made up his mind to quit the police force for good. When an old acquaintance, a solicitor, seeks Wallander's help and later turns up dead, Wallander realizes that he was wrong not to listen.

Work Description
La quatrième de couverture indique : "Le brouillard est épais en cette nuit automnale. Le vieil avocat Gustaf Torstensson est au volant. Soudain, une étrange silhouette surgit au milieu de la route : c'est un mannequin de taille humaine, assis sur une chaise. Torstensson freine brutalement, sort de sa voiture. On ne le reverra jamais vivant. Son fils fait appel au commissaire Wallander. Celui-ci va découvrir un réseau criminel derrière lequel se profile un homme singulier, élégant et sûr de lui. Un homme qui sourit toujours."
