Maj Sjöwall and Per Wahlöö are Swedish journalists, authors of the famous series of novels about Commissioner Martin Beck, which have won prestigious literary awards both in Europe and America.
In the latest novels of the series, the immersion in the social context becomes even deeper than in the first books. The conflict within the police itself comes to the fore: between old-school investigators like Martin Beck, who delve into the smallest details of the case in order to resolve all the contradictions in it, and the highest police officials, who believe that such scrupulousness is useless and even harmful. They prefer the new generation of figures, like Sten Olsson with the characteristic nickname Bulldozer, who go straight ahead and know how to "drag out" the necessary versions by the ears. What will such haste lead to?
