The first audiobook which appeared in Georges Simenon's famous Maigret series, in a gripping new translation by David Bellos.Inevitably Maigret was a hostile presence in the Majestic. He constituted a kind of foreign body that the hotel's atmosphere could not assimilate. Not that he looked like a cartoon policeman. He didn't have a moustache and he didn't wear heavy boots. His clothes were well cut and made of fairly light worsted. He shaved every day and looked after his hands. But his frame was proletarian. He was a big, bony man.

George Simenon's devastating tale of misfortune, betrayal and the weakness of family ties, translated by Anthea Bell. Instead of the detail filling itself in and becoming clearer, it seemed to escape him. The face of the man in the ill-fitting coat just misted up so that it hardly looked human. In theory this mental portrait was good enough, but now it was replaced by fleeting images which should have added up to one and the same man but which refused to get themselves into focus.

Those black dresses that she must make for herself from bad paper patterns, that ridiculous green hat!

"Bödelns leende" är den sjunde boken från Ulf Broberg & Peter Lundström, om poliserna på rikskriminalen, Säpo och Uppsalapolisen. De tre första böckerna ("Iskallt Våld", "Ondskans Väg" och "Rättarens Tid") berättar en avslutad historia, men berättelsen fortsätter ändå i Mannen från Tenhult, Brytpunkt Uppsala, ICE och nu i Bödelns leende; eftersom det i stor utsträckning är samma poliser som figurerar och ibland samma kriminella krafter som skymtar i bakgrunden. Och romanens aktörer bär med sig både gott och ont från det som har varit.
