Overview
A self-guided audio walking tour through Ystad, based on Henning Mankell’s Kurt Wallander short story ”The Death of the Photographer”.
It is a chilly spring morning in 1988. Police detective Kurt Wallander is having breakfast when he is alerted that a local photographer has been found brutally murdered. The events of the murder are curious, and it becomes even more strange when Wallander finds a photo album that contains a grotesquely distorted image of himself at the crime scene.
This audio tour is self-guided via a GPS-based app downloaded to your smartphone. There will be clues and evidence material hidden in your surroundings – features that are triggered to show up on your mobile screen when you get close to them. Through sound, images, and exciting puzzles you will be challenged to use your detective skills to solve this case. This walking tour is perfect for those who want to go sightseeing in Ystad in a fun and flexible manner, as well as for audio book- and puzzle game fans
