Française d'origine catalane, diplômée de sciences politiques et fascinée par les liens familiaux, Johana Gustawsson vit à Londres avec son mari suédois et leurs enfants. Ses romans Block 46 et Mör, disponibles dans plus de 20 pays, sont en cours d'adaptation en série TV sous la direction d'Alexandra Lamy. Ils mettent en scène un duo d'enquêtrices atypique, formé par la froide et ténébreuse Emily Roy, profileuse canadienne détachée à Scotland Yard, et l'écrivaine de true crime Alexis Castells. Dans Block 46, Emily et Alexis plongent au coeur de la folie meurtrière et ravivent la mémoire de la Shoah. Mör, leur deuxième enquête, remonte aux racines d'un autre mal, nourri dans l'ombre de Jack l'Éventreur. Avec Sang, elles suivent la piste d'un tueur jusqu'à la guerre civile espagnole et les terribles orphelinats de la peur.

Whitechapel, 1888: London is bowed under Jack the Ripper's reign of terror.
London 2015: Actress Julianne Bell is abducted in a case similar to the terrible Tower Hamlets murders of some ten years earlier, and harking back to the Ripper killings of a century before.
Falkenberg, Sweden, 2015: A woman's body is found mutilated in a forest, her wounds identical to those of the Tower Hamlets victims.
With the man arrested for the Tower Hamlets crimes already locked up, do the new killings mean he has a dangerous accomplice, or is a copy-cat serial killer on the loose?
Profiler Emily Roy and true-crime writer Alexis Castells again find themselves drawn into an intriguing case, with personal links that turn their world upside down.
Following the highly acclaimed Block 46 and guaranteed to disturb and enthral, Keeper is a breathless thriller from the new queen of French Noir.
