With pan-Scandinavian crime thrillers topping the charts for both books and films, the world's eyes now turn to the picture-perfect coastal village of Fjällbacka, 90 minutes north of Gothenburg. With regular boat-trips to the unspoiled Weather Islands and colourful wooden buildings that stand out against a rocky backdrop, it may come as a surprise that Fjällbacka is the birthplace of Camilla Läckberg and setting for her grizzly crime novels – soon to be televised as 'The Fjällbacka Murders'. Seven nights' B&B at the cosy Bryggan Fjällbacka cost from £941 pp (two sharing), including flights (Heathrow) and car hire.
