Firewall by Henning Mankell

Stopping to get money from a cash machine one evening, a man inexplicably falls to the ground: dead. A girl held in police custody escapes and disappears without a trace. An unexpected blackout leaves half the country in darkness and when an engineer arrives at the malfunctioning power station, he makes a grisly discovery. Inspector Kurt Wallander is sure that these events must be linked - somehow. As he searches for answers he gets dangerously involved with a shadowy group of anarchic terrorists, hidden within the anonymity of cyberspace. The terrorists, always seem to be one step ahead of the police's next move and only Wallander can be counted on to outsmart them.
Henning Mankell has become a worldwide phenomenon with his crime writing, gripping thrillers and atmospheric novels set in Africa. His prizewinning and critically acclaimed Inspector Wallander Mysteries are currently dominating bestseller lists all over the globe. His books have been translated into over forty languages and made into numerous international film and television adaptations: most recently the BAFTA-award-winning BBC television series Wallander, starring Kenneth Branagh. Mankell devotes much of his free time to working with Aids charities in Africa, where he is also director of the Teatro Avenida in Maputo. In 2008, the University of St Andrews conferred Henning Mankell with an honorary degree of Doctor of Letters in recognition of his major contribution to literature and to the practical exercise of conscience.
