    By Jan Stocklassa (Author), Tara F. Chace (Translator), 495 pages, published Oct 1, 2019

    Amazon's Description:

    “A fascinating ‘creative nonfiction’ account of the greatest unsolved mystery in Swedish history.” —Wall Street Journal

    “It’s more than just a thrilling book…There’s a lot of evidence that points to an international conspiracy.” —CBS This Morning Saturday

    The author of the Millennium novels laid out the clues. Now a journalist is following them.

    When Stieg Larsson died, the author of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo had been working on a true mystery that out-twisted his Millennium novels: the assassination on February 28, 1986, of Olof Palme, the Swedish prime minister. It was the first time in history that a head of state had been murdered without a clue who’d done it—and on a Stockholm street at point-blank range.

    Internationally known for his fictional villains, Larsson was well acquainted with their real-life counterparts and documented extremist activities throughout the world. For years he’d been amassing evidence that linked their terrorist acts to what he called “one of the most astounding murder cases” he’d ever covered. Larsson’s archive was forgotten until journalist Jan Stocklassa was given exclusive access to the author’s secret project.

    In The Man Who Played with Fire, Stocklassa collects the pieces of Larsson’s true-crime puzzle to follow the trail of intrigue, espionage, and conspiracy begun by one of the world’s most famous thriller writers. Together they set out to solve a mystery that no one else could.

    eBook is free at time of posting. Please check price before buying.

      Add Audible narration for $3.49 (AU) or $2.19 (US). So pretty cheap audiobook too.

      For those who want a bit of background to this read:

      The Author Who Played With Fire
      Just when Stieg Larsson was about to make his fortune with the mega-selling thriller The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, the crusading journalist dropped dead. Now some are asking how much of his fiction–which exposes Sweden’s dark currents of Fascism and sexual predation–is fact.

        Well it's not like Epstein was murdered or anything so there's no way that our elites could be into sexual depravity.

        Do you not have enough places on the internet to express your political beliefs that you now have to inject them into book deals on Ozbargain?

          Hey look everyone, a Trump supporter who managed to use a keyboard! Well done you!

          I just thought I'd see how many negs I'd get, I must say I'm surprised to see so many Trump supporters clicking on a book deal.

            @D C: I voted Labour at the last State and Federal election, but nice try. I'm sure your gotcha moment will work on the next person.

            • Anticonsumption on 19/04/2020 - 18:13

              @40YearOldSturgeon: I’m really confused by what that other poster is on about…

                @Anticonsumption:

                I’m really confused

                Just look at the pretty colours.

              • Grish on 19/04/2020 - 22:21

                @Anticonsumption: I think he was actually trying to be funny initially, which epically backfired so he then proceeded to dig deeper…and deeper.. I think he's still digging!..

                So, it's a combination of whoosh's and facepalms I guess.

            • D C on 19/04/2020 - 22:08

              @40YearOldSturgeon:

              I voted Labour

              And you do know you can't vote Trump in Oz, right?

              And you can't vote for Labour either, they're in the UK.

              C'mon, if you're not a Trump supporter then why are you feeding the troll?

      Don't read The Girl in the Tree if you don't like rude words. /s

      Here's a 1* review from Amazon:

      "I could not get past the first few pages. Not sure why authors feel it’s necessary to use the F word in a story, but call me old fashioned, I don’t like it. Was not interested in finish reading this book."

        Gotta love reading Amazon reviews. To that person's credit, even I didn't expect the C word in the first few pages. Great book so far though.

    I'm always telling myself I should read more, but never seem to find the time to get into these.

    Does anyone add Audible narration as well? At $3.49 each for most titles it seems reasonable.

    • njastar on 19/04/2020 - 10:01

      I found Audible narration really hit or miss, some of them are amazing like Stephen Fry but others are quite bad.

    Probably never read them but grabbed them anyway. Thanks.

    Thanks OP! Available in the US store by removing the ".au" from the URL.

    This is really generous!

    • alvian on 19/04/2020 - 14:08

      It simply shows how little royalty Amazon pays the authors for each digital copy. What is generous is investors willingness to buy Amazon. Its P/E ratio (103.22) is way higher than the other three $1T tech companies:

      • Apple: 22.47
      • Alphabet: 26.01
      • Microsoft: 32.78
