The Long Shadow

I enjoyed The Long Shadow by Liza Marklund which is set in Sweden and Spain.  The author has based her story around a community of Swedes who have moved to their "place in the sun" as a holiday destination or to live.  This may well be the case in reality.  A Swedish journalist, Annika Bengtzon, is sent to Spain to write about a shocking murder there.  She becomes involved with the case and learns more about the Swedish community there.  She discovers that drugs crimes and corruption are happening and she tries to learn more as the mystery deepens.  I found this story a little hard to follow at times.  This is not the first book about this character as the author sometimes makes references to events that may have occurred in a previous book.  Anyway, it was fairly entertaining. 31/2/5
