Stella Blómkvist

Nobody knows who Stella Blómkvist is. More than ten years have passed since the publication of her (or his) first book, Morðið í stjórnarráðinu (The Murder in the Ministry), but nobody has ever uncovered the mystery of who is behind the pen name. Many possible names have been suggested as the identity of Stella, including Davíð Oddson, the former Prime Minister of Iceland. However, these theories are pure speculation.

Engineer by day, writer by night—that's how I would describe myself. Since childhood, I have been fascinated with how writers can create entire worlds with simple words and draw others into their stories.
