Just finished Complicit by Nicci French. Rather a strange story, with shifts in time used to develop the plot and story. I think some of her others are better.

I also like Henning Mankell, the Swedish author: he created the character Kurt Wallander, the Swedish policeman. Don't worry, the books have been translated into English, so you don't need to know Swedish to enjoy them. There was also a Swedish TV series, and a UK series of Wallander, which I have not seen yet. The Swedish series is excellent.

I am now reading Mankell's "Depths". It's not a Wallander story and I didn't read it when it was first published in English in 2006 because I didn't think I would like it. However, I was wrong. Set in 1914, the story so far tells of a naval engineer making sound readings for the Swedish Navy. He appears to be involved in some kind of secret mission.

You might like to check out the Wallander series at some stage.
