Will Dean is the award-winning author of 11 novels. He grew up in the East Midlands of the UK, and after studying law at the London School of Economics and working in London, he settled in rural Sweden where he built a wooden house in a vast forest. It is from this base that he compulsively reads and writes. His debut novel, Dark Pines, was selected for Zoe Ball’s TV book club, shortlisted for the National Book Awards, The Guardian’s Not the Booker prize, and was named a Telegraph book of the year. The Last Thing to Burn was longlisted for the CWA Gold Dagger and the Glass Bell Award, and shortlisted for the Theakston Old Peculiar crime novel of the year award. He has won the Capital Crime Independent Voice Award and the Bert’s Books Book of the Year award. The Last Passenger was a Richard& Judy Book Club pick in 2024. Will’s books have been translated into over a dozen languages.
