Publisher's Summary

When retired policeman Herbert Molin is found brutally slaughtered on his remote farm in the northern forests of Sweden, police find strange tracks in the snow, as if someone had been practicing the tango. Stefan Lindman, a young police officer recently diagnosed with mouth cancer, decides to investigate the murder of his former colleague, but is soon enmeshed in a mystifying case with no witnesses and no apparent motives. Terrified of the disease that could take his life, Lindman becomes more and more reckless as he unearths the chilling links between Molin's death and an underground neo-Nazi network that runs further and deeper than he could ever have imagined.

Curious enough to put up with this boring book

I really didnt want to keep listening but the writing was repetitious and boring, I wanted know the ending but it was so hard to keep going.The main character with the cancer was a self-centred boring character and the descriptions of driving stopping driving stopping I kept thinking something was going to happen but no nothing happened. When he kept calling his girlfriend it was ridiculous. Such a great premise with promise but nothing
