Vares - Sukkanauhakäärme (2011) a.k.a. Vares - The Garter Snake

A hard-boiled detective story about a private detective, Vares, living in Turku. He is hired to trail a Spanish musician who seems to be sleeping with the wife of a wealthy attorney. Soon the musician ends up dead. The attorney hires Vares to find the murderer (and clear his name, as he is naturally one of the top suspects).

The main killer Torsten Rapp is scary in a realistic way, and the powers behind everything are genuinely chilling. "The big fish always remain free" seems a topical remark in the current world economic situation. Vares is aware that he is out of his league with the big businessmen. New satiric targets include gallery art, gym business as a front for drug traffic, and the contemporary expert playboy lifestyle of a Spanish jazz pianist. There is fresh observation in the account of the old Kakola prison and the prison escape. A grown-up woman's desire is again overwhelming for Vares.
