What if ...
I am a Danish crime fiction writer specializing in thrilling stories within the science genre. With a background in neurobiology, I aim to capture the intrigue of biology and psychology in my books.
My works revolve around the compelling question of "What if..." and delve into biological phenomena such as viruses, dangerous bacteria, infectious diseases, and psychopathy. Set against the backdrop of modern everyday life, my stories incorporate conspiracy theories, mysteries, murders, historical events, and profound reflections.
Within my thrillers, the human mind, particularly the psychology and actions of psychopaths, takes center stage. Exploring this aspect fascinates both me and the characters in my books.
I strive for realism in my plots, crafting scenarios that could plausibly unfold in real life. Additionally, I ensure that the settings, buildings, and characters are relatable to readers, enhancing their connection with the story.
My ultimate goal is to create an enthralling book that captivates readers with its excitement, unexpected twists, and easily understandable insights into psychological and biological phenomena. Through my writing, I aim to entertain while offering readers a glimpse into these fascinating realms.
