- In this witty, poignant and tense collection of stories, the beloved author of The Number One Ladies Detective Agency and 44 Scotland Street introduces us to Ulf Varg (Wolf Wolf in Swedish/Danish), a detective in the Malmo CID. Ulf is the typical, brooding Scandinavian detective of the popular imagination. He is unlucky in love, a bit inclined to seasonal affective disorder, and, as a result, melancholic during the long winters. His wife has left him for a stage hypnotist, although he still feels fondness for her and would take her back in a heartbeat. He likes Scotch whisky, and has a collection of rare malts. He shares his flat with his dog, Marten, who is deaf. Marten has been trained to lip-read, a fact that intrigues Else Horghaven, a freelance journalist. She has long wanted to write an article about Marten, but Ulf has resisted this, not wanting Marten to get public attention. Else pursues Ulf, but with little success. Ulf is courteous and sympathetic. He is interested in matters of the mind and in Scandinavian art of the nineteen-thirties. He is also a good cook.
