There are two investigations in this, the 8th Martin Beck title. A special squad is looking into a rash of bank robberies. And Martin Beck is working by himself on a classic locked room mystery. A Stockholm bank was robbed by a young woman who shot and killed a bank customer during the holdup, and the police force is scrambling to find the bank robber.
