Tom Weiner
On a cold and rainy Stockholm night, nine bus riders are gunned down by an unknown assassin. The press, anxious for an explanation for the seemingly random crime, quickly dubs the killer a madman. But Superintendent Martin Beck of the Stockholm Homicide Squad suspects otherwise: this apparently motiveless killer has managed to target one of Beck’s best detectives, young Åke Stenström. Reasoning that Stenström would not have been riding that lethal bus without a reason, Beck retraces his steps and chases year-old clues to a crime long thought unsolvable.
With its wonderfully observed lawmen (including the inimitable Martin Beck), its brilliantly rendered felons and their murky Stockholm underworld, and its deftly engineered plot, this is another incredible installment in the acclaimed Martin Beck mystery series.

“A tantalizing, intricate tale.”
(New York Times Book Review)“Tom Weiner gives a performance that is pitch-perfect for the material. The very different personalities of the squad members are beautifully rendered, as are characters we meet only once or twice…Weiner’s sure narration is always on key with what is happening…Winner of the AudioFile Earphones Award.”
(AudioFile)“A top-notch example of the police procedural school of mystery.”
(Chicago Sun-Times)“Must reading for anyone who claims to be [a student] of the best detective fiction.”
(Saturday Review)“I’ve read The Laughing Policeman six or eight times. Each time I reach the final twist on the final page, I shiver afresh.”
(Jonathan Franzen)
