The Martin Beck books are widely acknowledged as some of the most influential detective novels ever written. Written by Swedish husband and wife team Maj Sjöwall and Per Wahlöö between 1965 and 1975, the 10-book series set a gold standard for all subsequent Scandinavian crime fiction. Long before Kurt Wallander or Harry Hole, Beck was the original flawed policeman, working with a motley collection of colleagues to uncover the cruelty and injustice lurking beneath the surface of Sweden's liberal society.

A mixed bag, and cheaper from the publisher
This is a collection of five horror(-ish) stories, produced by the Wireless Theatre Company. They are fine, as it goes, although none is outstanding. The acting, production, and effects are all perfectly competent, although there is little thematically in common between the stories. Three of the five are written by Marty Ross, probably better known for his contributions to Dr Who and its spin-offs. Burke & Hare is a sort of comedic take on the Victorian body-snatchers, which I found slightly irritating. Amontillado is, of course, the Edgar Allen Poe classic. Windover is a modern ghost story -- not a hugely convincing one, in my view.
The real problem, however, is that I've since discovered I could have got the same content directly from the producer, for less money, and in DRM-free, high-bitrate MP3 format.
