Suzanne Vermeer

Suzanne Vermeer is het pseudoniem van de in juni 2011 overleden auteur Paul Goeken. In 2002 debuteerde hij met zijn eerste thriller onder zijn eigen naam. Na vier titels ontstond het idee om daarnaast andere boeken onder pseudoniem uit te brengen. All-inclusive (2006) was het eerste boek op naam van Suzanne Vermeer en werd meteen een bestseller. Ook voor de volgende boeken waren de reisbranche en het toerisme het uitgangspunt en inmiddels is dat het unieke handelsmerk geworden voor deze ijzersterke vakantiethrillers.

Alle titels (All inclusive, De vlucht, Zomertijd, Cruise, Après-ski, De suite, Zwarte piste en Bella Italia ) zijn in de bestsellerlijst verschenen. De zomerthriller Cruise (2009) werd genomineerd voor de NS Publieksprijs 2010.

The atmosphere in the classroom in the book was exactly in the class of the subsidiary. The nasty girl Simone Slee is based on a neighbor kid that her daughters thought was very annoying.
