SprokJok – thanks for that – may well plump for that Martin Beck series of 10 (bit of a bummer if you don’t like the first one though 🙂 ) – I also have the following Skandos jotted down on a scrappy bit of paper :
Karin Fossum
Gunnar Staalesen
Anne Holt
Hakkan Nesser
Lisa Marklund
Helene Tursten
Ake Edwardson
Karin Alvtegen
