In July and August World Book Clubs, there's another chance to hear two of our most popular programmes of recent times with Scandanavian superstar crime-writers Henning Mankell and Jo Nesbo.

Last year Harriett Gilbert talked to the master of Swedish noir in the elegant environs of the church of St Mary Magdeleine in Woodstock England about Faceless Killers, the first novel in Mankell's globally acclaimed detective series featuring Kurt Wallander.

In it an elderly farm couple is brutally murdered and the only clue is the wife's last word "foreign" before she dies.

Wallander must find the killers before anger towards foreigners boils over.

Hear about - and from - Wallander's female admirers around the globe all apparently queuing up to marry him and about how Mankell plants deliberate errors - one in each novel - that no-one has ever spotted.

So join Harriett Gilbert to hear again what our readers in the church and around the world made of Henning Mankell鈥檚 Faceless Killers.
