''Literature/BellmanNoir'' is a is a trilogy of historical crime fiction, by [[SwedishMedia Swedish]] author [[AwesomeMcCoolname Niklas Natt och Dag]]. The three books are each titled after the year in which they are set:
# ''1793'', known as ''The Wolf and the Watchman'' in English.
# ''1794'' (no English title as of April 2022).
# ''1795'' (no English title as of April 2022).
Stockholm during the final years of the 18th century is a [[WretchedHive wretched hive]]. King [[UsefulNotes/NotableSwedishMonarchs Gustav III]] has recently been murdered at a maskerade ball and his young son crown prince [[UsefulNotes/NotableSwedishMonarchs Gustav IV]], is too young to rule. Gustav III's ill-adviced war against Russia has emptied the State's treasuries, and what little remains is soon squandered by his underage son's greedy guardian, the de facto ruler of the nation.
Mistrust and paranoia run rampant. From France come rumors of [[UsefulNotes/TheFrenchRevolution revolution]]. Life is hard, death is ever present, and blood runs as freely as the booze. As described under [[Music/CarlMichaelBellman Carl Michael Bellman]], from where the series takes its name, four major forces rule 18th century Stockholm; [[TrueArtIsAngsty angst]], [[EverybodyHasLotsOfSex lust]], [[DrowningMySorrows booze]] and [[DeathIsDramatic death]], and these books have plenty of all.
[[AC:1793]]
In the autumn of 1793 a body is found floating in Fatburen (the Larder), a lake fouled with all manner of waste, human, animal and anything in between. The body is horribly mutilated, its tongue, eyes, arms and legs all cut off. Even worse, the wounds seem to have healed, meaning the man [[AndIMustScream was kept alive for months during the amputations]] and some time after.
Night watchman Jean Michael "Mickel" Cardell, a war veteran who is himself lacking an arm, is the poor wretch tasked with retrieving the body from the foul waters.

A mother mourns her daughter, brutally killed on her wedding night
[[AC:1795]]
Jean Michael Cardell, one-armed and badly burnt, stalks the City between the Bridges at night, a vigilante doling out his personal form of [[CurbStompBattle justice]] to rapists, over-controlling fathers, pimps and others he find deserving.
