If you're interested in foreign murder mysteries, you might be interested
in trying the Martin Beck series by Maj Skowall (sp?) and Per Wahloo.
This is a set of Swedish mysteries mostly set in Stockholm.  Most, if not
all of the volumes, are available in paperback in English translation.
One, "The Laughing Policeman," was made into a film  (with the setting
changed to San Francisco), and another, "The Abominable Man," was made into
the good, but little known Swedish film "Man on the Roof."
