One Step Behind by Henning Mankell

3.0

An entertaining police procedural -- not really a thriller, though it had some exciting portions. It is more a story of how a murder investigation might proceed. I liked the main detective, Wallander (this is the first in the series I have read, and felt like I learned enough about Wallander to like him). I was intrigued by the detail offered in this story. The trips to the restroom for instance. Many books just gloss over the fact that their characters have natural needs...this book mentions the need to eat, sleep and use the restroom.
