Found another author that I have added to my "to read" list:
Jo Nesbo was born in 1960 in Oslo, Norway. After graduating from the Norwegian School of Economics, he worked as a freelance journalist and as a stockbroker. His first crime novel featuring Harry Hole was published in Norway in 1997 and was an instant hit, winning the Glass Key Award for best Nordic crime novel (an accolade shared with Peter Høeg, Henning Mankell and Stieg Larsson). After the success of his first novel, Nesbo devoted his time to writing and to his other passion: music. He also is the lead singer and songwriter for the popular Norwegian rock band 'di Derre'.
