Lindgren's romantic saga is of Bill Bergson, a more-or-less ordinary Swedish boy with an extraordinary fascination for detective work. He identifies clues, investigates enigmas, and solves the riddle surrounding a mysterious stranger while the police and other adults overlook or dismiss the whole matter. Drafty castles, tire tracks in the dust, boyhood rivalries, curious crimes, the War of the Roses, the intriguing Eva-Lotta, and Bill's well-used notebook all make this book well worth finding.
