Nyberg
Nyberg is the forensic pathologist for the Ystad CID. He's been doing the same job for about as long as Wallander, and he's the closest thing to a real friend that Wallander has in the police force.

Nyberg isn't afraid to speak his mind. He has a cutting manner and a dark sense of humour.
Once upon a time, he was deeply religious, but the things he has seen at work have knocked that out of him.
His wife has been seriously ill, but, unlike Wallander, he keeps his sorrows secret and doesn't wear his heart on his sleeve.
