Mari Jungstedt

    31. október 1962

    Mari Jungstedtová je švédska autorka populárnej detektívnej fikcie, ktorej diela sa často odohrávajú na malebnom ostrove Gotland. S novinárskou minulosťou vo švédskom rozhlase a televízii prináša do svojich príbehov novinársku presnosť a hlboké porozumenie ľudskej psychike. Jej romány pretkávajú napínavé zločiny s atmosférou ostrovného života, čo čitateľom ponúka pútavý vhľad do škandinávskych záhad. Jungstedtová majstrovsky vykresľuje zložité charaktery a napäté dejové línie, ktoré z nej robia jednu z popredných autoriek žánru.
