Work Description
Con El hombre inquieto, Mankell retoma las andanzas del inspector Wallander, del que supimos por última vez en el volumen Antes de que hiele, y, según asegura el autor sueco, tal vez nos hallemos ante la última aventura protagonizada por el entrañable inspector.
La vida del inspector Kurt Wallander ha cambiado ligeramente: no sólo ha hecho realidad su sueño de tener una casa en el campo, sino que, además, su hija Linda lo ha convertido en abuelo. Sin embargo, su tranquilidad se ve perturbada poco después, un día de invierno de 2008, cuando el suegro de Linda, un oficial de alto rango de la Marina sueca llamado Håkan von Enke, desaparece en un bosque cerca de Estocolmo. Aunque la investigación la dirige la policía de Estocolmo, Wallander no puede evitar implicarse, sobre todo cuando una segunda persona desaparece en misteriosas circunstancias. Algunas pistas apuntan a grupos de extrema derecha en el seno de la Marina sueca y a la época de la Guerra Fría, en particular a la década de los ochenta, cuando varios submarinos soviéticos fueron acusados de violar territorio sueco. Wallander comprende que está a punto de desvelar un gran secreto cuyo alcance abarcaría toda la historia de Suecia tras la segunda guerra mundial. Pero una nube aún más negra asoma por el horizonte.
