He's got no style, he's got no flash and he's squarely in middle age. But Swedish detective Martin
Beck
is good at one thing: methodically catching criminals so that they can be put away... for a long time. His tightly-wound partner, Gunvald, is his opposite: an impulsive man who cuts a dashing figure, is in no way politically correct and who never met a boundary he didn't leap across.

Beck
and his team to a website where young boys are sold for sex, but time is running out.

Beck
's long-lost son, whose existence was a well-kept secret from colleagues and family. After his initial shock,
Beck
returns to the investigation with renewed passion. This time it's personal."--Container.
