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.

Lucy Jane Wood

I found myself falling into the world of writing almost by accident. My blogging friends at university were applying for swanky magazine internships, and I decided I should probably do something useful like that for myself. It was an obvious decision that almost made itself on my behalf, because writing is just who I am, and reading has always just been what I do.

Since happily stumbling my way into my first paid writing position for teen website Sugarscape back in 2013, I've been lucky and thrilled to find myself working freelance for giant titles like Marie Claire US, Cosmopolitan UK, MTV and Metro amongst others.

I am currently attempting to write my first fiction book. Wish me luck! I'm going slowly insane with it, and I am reassuringly t
