I was a bit sad, when I realized that Kurt Wallander was hit by Alzheimers. As I thought this meant the end of him as crime investigator. On top of this the whole unit in Ystad was threatened on its existence. It did survive, however, and Kurt has a daughter, so a continuation of the Wallander series is not quite impossible, but it will not be the same. In England they continued the legendary Morse series with his sidekick Lewis, maintaining the low key British detection tradition, which also was apparent in the Wallander series, much to my liking. Many of the episodes were not outstanding, but the series all together painted a sympathetic picture of the atmosphere from southern Sweden, so it was with pleasure and anticipation I renewed acquaintance with Wallander when new seasons appeared. Henning Mankell has accomplished a fine job putting the initial episodes together from which the rest of the series sprang. If episode 32 is the end, Wallander will be missed.
