He has a new book out…
[Update #1] Well I popped into Enfield earlier, bad back notwithstanding, and Ottakers were the only shop to have it. Sadly the RRP is 14.99 and that’s a bit steep for me just now. WH Smiths and El Cheapo bookshop both have the recently published popular paperback version of One Step Behind, but neither had a discounted copy of The White Lioness (seemingly the only current hardback not discounted by Ottakers).
Henning Mankell is evidently becoming ever more popular, and Harvill seem to be trying to squeeze more cash from the series. Last time around, One Step Behind was published as a trade paperback, but that was only back in September. Now April swings around and we get a hardback. And then there are only a few more months until the September release of the next title, The Return of the Dancing Master.
I shall check around the chainstores in London over the next week to see if there’s a better deal to be had (of course I realise that the Amazon link above features a fairly decent discount, but P&P mitigates against it).
[Update #2] Hooray. BOL had it for 6.99 including postage, and I’m a member!
