Critic reviews
"The Swedish husband and wife team who have yet to write a dull book - and have the prizes to prove it - again provide supercop Martin Beck with an impossible murder to solve.... Don't miss any of it." (Chicago Tribune)

Granted that capitalism and socialism also have their faults but few can boast of the brutality of the Soviets and Chinese. And what does that have to do with a good detective story anyway?
Good story if you overlook the communist rants

Would you listen to The Locked Room again? Why?
I already listened to this twice, it is so dense with characters, humor, plot details, environment, and commentary on the Swedish state. I will definitely listen to this again in a year or two because it is so great.What other book might you compare The Locked Room to and why?
This is one of the best of the series by the authors. If you like Michael Connelly or Ed McBain, you will love this!A classic!
