About this listen

Random House presents the audiobook edition of Sidetracked by Henning Mankell, read by Sean Barrett.

Midsummer approaches, and Wallander prepares for a holiday with the new woman in his life, hopeful that his wayward daughter and his ageing father will cope without him. But his summer is ruined when a girl commits suicide before his eyes, and a former minister of justice is butchered in the first of a series of apparently motiveless murders. Wallander's hunt for the girl's identity and his furious pursuit of a killer who scalps his victims will throw him and those he loves most into mortal danger.

Well worth listening. Explores a wide range of emotions and a difficult situation. Wallander remains a believable, troubled person and his relationships are given time to unfold. Excellent narration, Sean Barrett is a consummate professional and does this story full justice.

Engaging and complex

Love this series and they keep getting better and better. Mankell has really found his stride and Barrett is as sure footed as ever. A superb combination.
