ANDERS ANDERSSON WAS STILL on vacation with his family at an all-inclusive hotel in Alcudia, Mallorca, eight days after the incidents in the Helsingborg jail. Although he hadn’t read a single newspaper, it had been impossible to miss the news of what had happened back home. Everyone was talking about it, and it only took two days before everyone at the hotel knew that he had been in that class and started saying things about guardian angels and blessings in disguise.
Anders himself didn’t believe in that sort of thing, but what did he know? Maybe they’re right, he thought, and ordered another beer from the bar. He opened the last pack of snus he had brought along, unaware that it had been penetrated with a syringe three weeks earlier.
Despite the doctors’ heroic measures, he died shortly thereafter.
Three days after Lotta Ting’s vacation was officially over, she was found locked in a box in her attic at Colbjørnsens gate 12 in Oslo, arms and legs bound behind her. According to the forensic investigation, it had taken fewer than five days for her to die, thanks to the high summer temperatures.
On Sunday, July 11, Christine Vingåker and her husband left the house they had been renting in Lysekil to go home and back to work for a week before an island-hopping vacation in Greece with their children. Christine got into her Nissan Micra early on Monday morning and drove to her office, which was on Drottninggatan in Helsingborg. She had brought along the bottle of supplements she took each morning and evening. She couldn’t actually afford them, but she hadn’t been sick once since she’d started taking them, just as her friend had promised, and she was in her fifth year of good health.
No one else was injured when the driverless car ran into one of the concrete pillars in the parking garage under Knutpunkten.
People ripped down Torgny Sölmedal ads or sprayed nasty words over them. An increasing number of voices joined the appeal to take the posters down and replace them with something else, but it was easier said than done in the middle of vacation season, so Torgny’s face continued to adorn Sweden for the two remaining weeks of high summer.
