Karin Alvtegen was born in 1966 in a small town in Sweden. Her first novel, GUILT (Skuld), was published in Sweden in 1998, to rave reviews. Two years later MISSING (Saknad) won Scandinavia's distinguished Glass Key award, for Best Crime Novel of the Year. BETRAYAL (Svek) (2005) was shortlisted for another Glass Key, and SHAME (Skam) was a finalist for one of England's prestigious CWA ‘Dagger' awards, for Best International Crime Novel of 2006. She has been called ‘a modern-day Strindberg' and ‘Sweden's Queen of Crime.' (Both SHAME and BETRAYAL are coming from Felony & Mayhem.) Karin Alvtegen is the great-niece of Astrid Lindgren, author of the ‘Pippi Longstocking' books. Her novels have been published in 25 countries, and MISSING has been made into a British television miniseries. Alvtegen lives with her husband and children in Stockholm.
