A review by marcele
The Laughing Policeman by Maj Sjöwall

3.0

People were right, this one is the best of Martin Beck's books. At least, so far. And, ironically, Beck isn't so present all the time, the investigation was so clearly a group effort. I couldn't ignore, despite its age, the comments on feminine sexuality. "She likes to have sex, so she is definitely a nymphomaniac! If she acts on it, she's a whore." UGH. One less star for this. But the fact they have the answer for the crime right there since the beginning was pretty awesome.
