Nečekaný vrah - Příběh vraždy Olofa Palmeho – Pettersson Thomas (2022)

Who really killed the Swedish Prime Minister? It is the year 1986, just before midnight. On a freezing February evening, beloved Swedish Prime Minister Olof Palme is returning from the cinema with his wife Lisbeth. Palme has only a few minutes left to live — moments later, he is shot by an unknown man in a side alley. Shortly after midnight, he is pronounced dead in the hospital. The shock reverberates throughout Sweden and Europe. How could it happen that such a popular and consensus-driven politician as Olof Palme was murdered in such a peaceful country? And most importantly: Who pulled the trigger? The murder of Olof Palme became one of the greatest criminal mysteries of the twentieth century. In 2007, journalist Thomas Pettersson began investigating the case: the statement of one witness was so out of line with all the others that it warranted verification. The result of Pettersson's twelve-year search is not only the internationally successful book Unexpected Killer, which reads like a thriller, but also a solved case: based on his evidence and arguments, the Swedish police closed the case of Olof Palme's murder.
