About the book

Henning Mankell's The Dogs of Riga is a Kurt Wallander crime novel that begins when two murdered men are discovered in a life raft off the Swedish coast. Wallander's investigation soon leads beyond Sweden to Latvia, newly independent after decades of Soviet rule. In Riga he enters an unfamiliar world of political instability, surveillance, corruption and divided loyalties, where it is difficult to know whom to trust. Blending police procedural with political thriller, the novel uses the murder investigation to explore abuse of power, isolation and the uncertainty of post-Soviet Eastern Europe.
