A few words about Kristina Ohlsson:
Kristina Ohlsson (b. 1979) is one of Sweden’s most prominent and acclaimed authors in both crime fiction and children’s literature. Before becoming a full-time writer, she worked for the OSCE (Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe), the Swedish Security Service, and the Ministry for Foreign Affairs. Since beginning her literary career, she has frequently appeared on both Swedish and international bestseller lists, been nominated for numerous awards, and received critical acclaim. In 2020, she launched a new crime series set on Sweden’s atmospheric west coast: the August Strindberg series. The first book, Storm Watch (Stormvakt), has now been translated into Greek by Patakis Publishers.

Varm welcome!
