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

Anna Stuart

I wanted to be an author from the moment I could pick up a pen and was writing boarding-school novels by the age of nine. I made the early mistake of thinking I ought to get a ‘proper job’ and went into Factory Planning – a career that gave me some wonderful experiences, amazing friends and even a fantastic husband, but didn’t offer much creative scope. So when I stopped to have children I took the chance to start the ‘improper job’ of writing. During the baby years I wrote in the brief gaps provided by sleeps, playschools and obliging grandparents, publishing short stories and serials in all the women’s magazines.

But my ultimate aim was to write longer fiction and several years ago I published a series of successful historical novels under

Olivier Bourdeaut est né au bord de l’Océan Atlantique en 1980. L’Education Nationale, refusant de comprendre ce qu’il voulait apprendre, lui rendit très vite sa liberté. Dès lors, grâce à l’absence lumineuse de télévision chez lui, il put lire beaucoup et rêvasser énormément.

Puis, pendant deux ans, il devint responsable d’une agence d’experts en plomb, responsable d’une assistante plus diplômée que lui et responsable de chasseurs de termites, mais les insectes achevèrent de ronger sa responsabilité. Il fut aussi ouvreur de robinets dans un hôpital, factotum dans une maison d’édition de livres scolaires – un comble – et cueilleur de fleu
