The man on the beach

A man is found dead in the backseat of a taxi. He seems to have died from poisoning, but nobody understands how it happened.

Meet legendary Swedish police inspector Kurt Wallander in this short story, a classic murder mystery that takes place on a foggy, abandoned beach in the south of Sweden during the chilly spring of 1987.

He must have met somebody here, Wallander thought. Or rather, he must have arranged to meet somebody. You dont bump into a poisoner by accident.
