In the hilarious fourth instalment of the bestselling Detective Varg series, Ulf Varg will need to resolve both a sensitive crime and his own delicate dilemma in the hopes of preserving the peace.
The Department of Sensitive Crimes is downsizing in light of a recent downturn of sensitive crime, and staff members are wondering who among them will be transferred elsewhere. As the bickering between colleagues intensifies, Ulf tries his best to stay above the fray. But when Anna, a long-time friend and co-worker, appears to blame him for an old case that went sideways, it seems she may be putting her own job prospects above their friendship.
In the midst of all this, Ulf embarks on an important inquiry – a man's cabin has mysteriously disappeared and Ulf is tasked with finding out what happened. How exactly does one steal a house? And, more to the point, how does one track down a stolen house? Meanwhile, a promising veterinary treatment for deafness in dogs has been announced, and Ulf's dog, Martin, might be the perfect patient.
'[McCall Smith] is a deeply serious writer who values truth, honesty, sympathy and kindness.'
Scotsman
'A lazy-dazy pleasure. What binds the stories are the tight relationships of Varg and his colleagues and their hilariously human crotchets.' (on the Detective Varg series)
The New York Times Book Review
'McCall Smith's continuing warm-heartedness makes Ulf such unfailingly good company.' (on The Department of Sensitive Crimes)
Reader's Digest
'Cheerful or melancholy, irritated or resigned, Detective Varg gives the reader more dry wit, inspired whimsy and comic pleasure than any other Swedish investigator in the business.' (on the Detective Varg series)
