Swedish writer, diplomat, and journalist Jan Stocklacha. His book "The Man Who Played with Fire" has been published in Latvian, compiling unique research on the assassination of Swedish Prime Minister Olof Palme on February 28, 1986. Palme's assassination shook Europe at least as much as the assassination of John F. Kennedy in the US, and, just like Kennedy's assassination, it remains unsolved to this day.
The investigation described in the book was initiated by the tireless Swedish
journalist and writer Stieg Larsson (1954–2004). Although Larsson gained international fame with his fictional villains in the Millennium trilogy, he was well acquainted with their real-life counterparts, having collected material on right-wing extremist activities around the world. Over many years, he had built up an extensive archive revealing links between right-wing extremists and the Palme murder.
