Beers & Books CCLXVII – Mankell: The White Lioness

The White Lioness*

Henning Mankell (3 February 1948 – 5 October 2015)

* Unlike the German synopsis of this excellent political thriller the English one is suboptimal, to put it politely. F.e., the Broederbond is not about to orchestrate the murder of de Klerk but of Mandela.

  1. I haven't read that one. Those of his books I have read have been dark - but excellent.

    1. And for me this one is the only book I ever read of him. Don't read many thrillers, but this one was worth it.
