The Danes may have their hygge and the Norwegians their back to the land culture, but the Swedes have 'lagom': an even-keeled approach to a life of balance. Dr Bertil Marklund - a doctor and researcher at the Gothenburg University with over forty years of experience - provides the most cutting-edge research to explain the ten areas we should focus on to better our chances of a long life. This compact guide provides wisdom from the Nordics, a region long known for its healthy and progressive lifestyle. It debunks myths on things we have been told are not good for us but actually can be: did you know drinking coffee will promote your health? Or that more people die of lack of Vitamin D than they do of skin cancer? By providing pragmatic and realistic advice, Dr Marklund gives you the power to make a difference in your own life today and for the future.

Tra le strade di Londra, scosse dai tumulti del G20, un uomo asiatico viene investito mentre cerca di comunicare con un osservatore dell’Europol. Le sue ultime parole, sussurrate all’ispettore Arto Söderstedt, risultano incomprensibili. Pochi giorni dopo, in un parco della capitale, viene trovato il corpo di una donna, anche lei portatrice di un messaggio per la segretissima unità operativa OpCop dell’Europol, che si trova ad affrontare la sua prima indagine. I due casi di morte, inizialmente considerati isolati, rivelano un sorprendente nesso che si estende dall’Asia all’America, coinvolgendo gruppi malavitosi di vari paesi. OpCop ha come obiettivo dichiarato la lotta contro la criminalità internazionale. Questo thriller segna l’inizio di una nuova serie di polizieschi da uno dei migliori autori del genere nordico, che unisce le caratteristiche del thriller scandinavo e americano. La squadra di Söderstedt deve operare in un contesto in cui internet e la fluidità delle frontiere hanno globalizzato il crimine, con avidità e corruzione che si estendono oltre i confini nazionali. Arne Dahl offre un thriller avvincente e inquietantemente realistico, che intreccia brama, denaro e potere, riflettendo provocatoriamente il nostro tempo.

In the heart of summer, the country swelters in a fug of heat. In the beautiful forested lake-town of Sorbinowo, Sergeant Merwin Kluuge's tranquil existence is shattered when he receives a phone-call from an anonymous woman. She tells him that a girl has gone missing from the summer camp of the mysterious The Pure Life, a religious sect buried deep in the woods. Chief Inspector Van Veeteren is recruited to help solve the mystery. But Van Veeteren's investigations at The Pure Life go nowhere fast. The strange priest-like figure who leads the sect - Oscar Yellineck - refuses even to admit anyone is missing. Things soon take a sinister turn, however, when a young girl's body is discovered in the woods, raped and strangled; and Yellineck himself disappears. Yet even in the face of these new horrors, the remaining members of the sect refuse to co-operate with Van Veeteren, remaining largely silent. As the body count rises, a media frenzy descends upon the town and the pressure to find the monster behind the murders weighs heavily on the investigative team. Finally Van Veeteren realises that to solve this disturbing case, faced with silence and with few clues to follow, he has only his intuition to rely on ...

En 1978, en la localidad de Jonestown (Guyana), murieron todos los seguidores de una secta, liderada por un hombre llamado Jim Jones, en lo que parecía un suicidio colectivo; la noticia dio la vuelta al mundo en las primeras planas de todos los periódicos. En el año 2001, cuando ese terrible suceso ya ha caído en el olvido, Linda, la hija de Kurt Wallander, regresa a Ystad para, en unos días, iniciar su trabajo en la policía. Al tiempo que empiezan las desavenencias con su padre, Linda se integra en la vida cotidiana de Ystad y reanuda sus viejas amistades con dos jóvenes, Anna y Zebran. De pronto, Anna desaparece misteriosamente. Poco después, en los bosques de los alrededores de Ystad, Linda, junto a su padre, hace un descubrimiento aterrador: una cabeza de mujer, degollada, y dos manos unidas, seccionadas; del resto del cuerpo no hay el menor rastro. Y Anna sigue sin aparecer. Es el comienzo de un nuevo y trepidante caso al que se enfrentarán juntos Kurt Wallander y su hija Linda, quien, en el curso de la investigación, conocerá al agente Stefan Lindman (el protagonista de El retorno del profesor de baile), que le causará muy buena impresión.

Around a marvellous love story, Vallgren paints a cast of grotesques in a magical and atmospheric tour of 19th Century Europe.

A new case for Chief Inspector Van Veeteren - the complicated history of a nearly perfect murder. On a sunny August day a man is released from prison. On a rainy April day children at play find his corpse. The fact that the dead man is Leopold Verhaven only becomes clear after some time because the mutilated corpse is without its head, legs and feet. Who would be interested in killing this man, a double murderer who spent 24 years in prison? Determined to let no case go unsolved, Chief Inspector Van Veeteren reopens the case. What he discovers is that Verhaven was a star sprinter before he went to prison for allegedly killing two of his lovers. However, he never confessed to the murders and spent a lifetime proclaiming his innocence. Was he killed because someone thought he had not been punished enough? Or was someone afraid of Verhaven's revenge? A terrible suspicion stalks Van Veeteren: had Verhaven been telling the truth? Was he really innocent?

With a panorama of 18th-century Denmark and Europe, and weaving in a wide range of historical characters - Voltaire, Diderot, Catherine the Great and George III - this is a tale of ruthless political ambition and personal ambition.
