The Talented Mr. Varg

In the second installment of the bestselling Detective Varg novels, Ulf and his team investigate a notorious philanderer--a wolf of a man whose bad reputation may be all bark and no bite. The Department of Sensitive Crimes, renowned for taking on the most obscure and irrelevant cases, is always prepared to take on an investigation, no matter how complex. So when the girlfriend of an infamous author approaches Ulf Varg, the department''s lead detective, and insists her bad-boy beau is being blackmailed, Ulf is determined to help. It''s rather difficult to determine what skeletons hide in the hard-living Lothario''s closet, though. And while his fellow Swedes are notoriously tolerant...well, there are limits. The case requires all of Ulf''s concentration, but he finds himself distracted by his ongoing attraction to his coworker, Anna, whose fears about her husband''s fidelity are cauing a strain on her marriage. When Ulf is also tasked with looking into a group of dealers exporting wolves that seem more canis familiaris than canis lupus, it will require all of his team''s investigative instincts and dogged persistence to put these matters to bed.
