Paul Mendelson Reihenfolge der Bücher
Paul Mendelsons frühe Leidenschaft für das Geschichtenerzählen führte dazu, dass er zum jüngsten Dramatiker wurde, dessen Stück am National Theatre aufgeführt wurde. Zwei Jahrzehnte lang war er der meistverkaufte Autor Großbritanniens im Bereich Denksport, bevor er zu gefeierten Kriminalromanen überging. Sein Debütroman wurde für den CWA Golden Dagger nominiert, und nachfolgende Werke, die oft in Südafrika spielen, erhielten bedeutende Anerkennung für ihre politische Resonanz und packenden Handlungsstränge. Mendelsons Romane, die mittlerweile in mehrere Sprachen übersetzt wurden, präsentieren seine unverwechselbare Stimme und sein meisterhaftes Plotting, das die Leser in fesselnde Mysterien zieht.
