picture info	Crime Fiction Crime fiction, detective story, murder mystery, mystery novel, and police novel are terms used to describe narratives that centre on criminal acts and especially on the investigation, either by an amateur or a professional detective, of a crime, often a murder.

picture info	Kungälv Kungälv () (old no, Konghelle) is a city and the seat of Kungälv Municipality in Västra Götaland County, Sweden. It had 22,768 inhabitants in 2010. In 2021, the main Kungälv - Ytterby - Kareby conurbation had a combined population approaching 30,000. In total, the whole municipality had 47,050 inhabitants. History According to official Swedish sources the city was founded in 1612, when the city of Konghelle was moved closer to the Bohus Fortress.

For this reason, Kungälv could celebrate its "1000-year anniversary" in 1959. Sigurd I Magnusson (''Sigurd Jorsalfare'', i.e., Sigurd the Crusader) was the King of Norway (1103–1130) and is the best-known crusader king of Scandinavia.
