About the Author
Jørn Lier Horst worked as a police officer and head of investigations before becoming a full-time writer, establishing himself as one of the most successful authors to come out of Scandinavia. He writes engaging and intelligent crime novels that offer an uncommonly detailed and realistic insight into the way serious crimes are investigated, as well as how both police and press work. His books have sold over two million copies in his native Norway alone and he's published in twenty-six languages. His literary awards include the Norwegian Booksellers' Prize, the Riverton Prize (Golden Revolver), the Scandinavian Glass Key, and the prestigious Martin Beck Award.
