Henning Mankell or Camilla Lackgerg for instance might more to some people's taste.
My all-time favourite Scandinavian crime books were written by Sjöwall & Wahlöö.

Stretched credibility a wee bit towards the end and had some overly graphic violence in places but the best thing I've watched in ages.
