Rosanna. The Swede that disappeared. Man on the balcony. Flight to the scaffold

The detective genre under the feather of the spouses Valeo and Cheval “ceases to be a game of imagination and an entertaining reading divorced from reality” (“Times”) Of course, in every novel there is a difficult puzzle that the police must decide under the leadership of Martin Bek, but there is a background: Sweden of that time, with all its problems and contradictions. The reader follows the criminal along the real Stockholm streets, gets acquainted with both the best, “ceremonial” places of the Swedish capital, and with its “evil” corners.
This book includes the first four novels of Decalogous: Rosanna (1965), The Swede that disappeared (1966), The Man on the balcony (1967) and the flight to the scaffold (1968)
