“The Scandinavians Are Coming…”

The Guardian, on the rise of Scandinavian crime fiction:

Scandinavian crime fiction may still be something of a novelty act in the UK, but it’s a well-established genre in the rest of Europe, particularly Germany and France.

Link from The Morning News.

My book group recently read and thought well of Henning Mankell’s Return of the Dancing Master.

    Iceland’s had a rash of well-done crime fiction too. Of course, given that the country as a whole is falling apart, who knows how long that’ll last.
