The reader never doubts this author really knows what he is talking about. Slowly the tension is built up and there are often several parallel stories, always intelligently woven together at the end. The themes are contemporary and the storyline revolves around ordinary people and what happens to them when crime strikes suddenly in their everyday lives. Personal portraits are carefully elaborated and with each book the reader's sympathies for the main characters grow. And they are not only heroes, they also struggle with everyday problems and personal shortcomings.

Varg Gyllander previously worked as a crime reporter and naval officer. Today he is Head of Press at the Stockholm police on the National Police. His experience from the police provides a unique flavor to the storytelling. But what is fact and what is fiction?
