Does anyone know useful sources for Swedish phonology? Something that answers questions like, what tone is used for a two syllable past tense?

Two-syllable past tense verbs e.g. köpte, läste, hörde all have tone 2/grave pitch accent. By the way, all three-syllable verbs in the past tense also have that tone (during the first two syllables - the last one is neutral), but one-syllable verbs (or any other kind of word) don't.

I'm sure both of the recommended titles mention this.
