Bill Bergson, Master Detective

Bill Bergson, Master Detective Bill Bergson, Master Detective by Astrid Lindgren


My review


rating: 3 of 5 stars
I made an effort to read this (had to Inter-Library Loan it) because Stieg Larsson's books include references to it. Specifically, to the main character, which in the Swedish books is Kalle Blomquist, but in the English translations is Bill Bergson.



This is the first of three or so books in the series, and it's a pretty good little kids detective story. Kids solve the case of a jewel heist while playing in their small town. A quaint 50's feel, and some charming quirks in the translation.
