Mons Kallentoft

After being awarded the Swedish equivalent to the Whitbread Award for his debut novel Pesetas, Mons Kallentoft chose to give his own unique take on the classic Scandinavian crime novel. His success was immediate. The first book in the series about superintendent Malin Fors received unanimous praise from the national critics; it also conquered the bestseller charts and has today sold more than 300,000 copies in Sweden alone.

Was Mons Kallentoft born to be a storyteller? Yes, perhaps. Because, considering his upbringing, literature was not the obvious path in life. Mons grew up in a working-class home in the provincial town of Linköping, Sweden. Books were a rare phenomenon in his house; instead the young author spent his time playing footbal

Corina Bomann

Corina Bomann, 1974 in Parchim geboren, entdeckte die Welt der Bücher schon recht früh für sich. Als Kind verzierte sie die Exemplare der heimischen Bibliothek mit eigenen "Wachsstift-Illustrationen", später, als sie das Schreiben erlernt hatte, begann sie, eigene kleine Geschichten zu verfassen. Langeweile in Schule und Bus füllte sie mit viel Fantasie aus, sodass aus kleinen Geschichten bald ganze Romane wurden, die zunächst mehrere Kladdehefte füllten. Die Hefte und eine alte Schreibmaschine wichen nach und nach dem Computer; ihre Geschichten entstiegen den Schubladen und fanden ihre Heimat bei Verlagen. Noch heute lebt Corina Bomann in Mecklenburg und nutzt die traumhafte Ruhe und wunderbare Landschaft, um ihre Romane zu spinnen. In ihr
