Sanne ter Zee
Als kind schreef ik al spannende verhalen en droomde ik van een ‘eigen boek’. Later vond ik andere dingen belangrijker. Tot mijn verhalenschriften jaren geleden bij mijn ouders in de brievenbus vielen. Op zestienjarige leeftijd moest ik ze inleveren bij een docent, zodat ik mijn aandacht weer bij de les kon houden. Een andere docent vond ze en vroeg zich af of ik ooit nog iets met mijn talent had gedaan. Dat was het moment dat ik besloot mijn droom waar te maken. Iedere vrije minuut schreef ik aan mijn manuscript, vaak tot in de late uurtjes.

She is half-Greek and has been visiting the country with her family since she was a young child, when she first fell in love with the rich mythology, stunning scenery and of course the food. Returning to Corfu as an adult, she was struck by the dramatic - and often perilous - landscape and knew the island was the perfect starting point for a stifling psychological thriller.
