The Intel: Sissel-Jo Gazan
Authors, like cats, have territories about which they like to prowl. Danish author Sissel-Jo Gazan has marked out her own unique space in crime-fiction—biological science.
Her first bestseller, The Dinosaur Feather, was voted Danish Crime Novel of the Decade, no less, and the much-anticipated follow-up, The Arc Of The Swallow—which is out tomorrow—leads her detective Søren Marhauge into the murky, cut-throat world of the pharmaceutical industry. Published by Quercus, it’s available in hardback at £16-99.
A biology graduate from the University of Copenhagen, Sissel-Jo lives in Berlin. She gives us the intel on why science is fertile ground for crime fiction, on why sometimes you’ve just got to let go of months of work, and why she’d happily fall in love with her dreamy detective…
Tell us about The Arc Of The Swallow…
Personally I am not into blood and violent crime very much, and I’ve been told several times that The Arc of the Swallow is unusual for a crime novel. I use the crime genre as a hook to tell a story. I love writing about different characters and their secrets. I love to explore how they make life difficult for themselves, and how they manage when their closet is full of skeletons and there’s simply no more room for any more.

I cannot warm to these Scandanavian novels. When all the fuss broke about the Larrson books, I tried with the first of the trilogy and half way through I threw it away. I think I've become too Americanized in my reading habits. My favourate author is Michael Connelly and his most liked character is Bosch. I've read everything Connelly has written. He tried a new protagonist in Haller but hes not shit on Bosch's shoe. Bosch-Hieronymos Bosch-Harry, Harry and me are great pals. He lives high up on the hill, in a house on stilts overlooking Sunset, and he's a cop down a 1 Police Plaza in the LAPD. He left,tried his hand as a PI, retired and went back to the LAPD to RHD (robbery homicide division) to investigate closed cases. Harry's childhood was in an orphanage as his mother was found murdered and I'm a little uncomfortable with this aspect of his background because everytime I read it I think of James Ellroy the author whose mother was found in these circumstances, and he wrote about it in his book Dark Places, a powerful read.
When Connelly came to Belfast courtesy of No Allibis he said he is often asked who is Bosch based on and he will say 'you're looking at him". It's true, both Bosch and Connelly are very laid back and the guy
