Camilla Lackberg: On Agatha Christie and Michael Connelly

When you hear that an author has sold more than seven million books, a number of thoughts come to mind. Ideas about money, fame, perhaps artistic gratification. You probably don't imagine the author in question turning into a nervous wreck upon meeting her peers. Funny, how easily we forget that most people who are drawn to the writing life started out as passionate fans.

Camilla Läckberg published her first novel, The Ice Princess, in 2003. Since then, in her native Sweden, Läckberg has returned again and again to the bestseller list, penning a shelf of crime novels, a cookbook, and just this month a story for children. Now, finally, eight years after the debut (and thirty-four countries of publication later), her books have come to America, with The Ice Princess leading the way.
