Henrik Larsen

About

Henrik Larsen is a former homicide detective from Copenhagen who began writing mysteries as a form of therapy and discovered he was better at constructing crimes than he ever was at solving them. His stories resist the satisfactions of the genre — justice is partial, detectives are fallible, and the truth, when it arrives, is rarely comforting. The Fjord Cases series has developed a devoted international readership for its stark Nordic atmosphere and procedural precision.
