The small village in Ostrobothnia is now the scene of crimes solved by the Vaasa police – detective story writer Nilla Kjellsdotter places the murders in her home village
The squirrel village in Ostrobothnia is the setting for Kjellsdotter’s detective stories. At first, I was nervous about what the villagers would say, says the author, who is already writing his next books.
In Ostrobothnia, Oravain, there is a Kivipuisto along the road and next to it the cafe Fjärdens Kaffestugan.
They are familiar places to many passers-by. Some may have stopped by to look at the park’s stone pavers or stopped at a cafe to take a break.
The first part of the book series _Flickan i Stenparken_ was published in Sweden at the beginning of the year and it quickly started climbing the list of the most popular detective stories. About 40,000 copies of the book have been sold.
In Finnish, the _Kivipuisto tyttö_ book was published in July, and now Finnish-speaking readers can also take part in Oravainen’s landscape. More than 9,000 copies of the book have already been sold.
A childhood dream came true
The big Swedish publishing house _Norstedts_ acquired the rights to Kjellsdotter’s series a little over a year ago, and since then the squirrel author has had enough to go on.
Kjellsdotter herself takes a calm approach to her rapid career development, but is of course happy that her childhood dream has come true.
– I have always written. In elementary school, I wrote many kinds of stories. They could perhaps be described as short stories. At some point in the mother tongue class in middle school, we discussed being a writer, and that’s when I realized that it’s what I want to do, Kjellsdotter recalls.
