  • Mo Hayder is a British author of crime and thriller fiction. She is the author of six novels. Her debut, Birdman, was published in January 2000 and was an international bestseller. Her second novel, The Treatment, was a Sunday Times bestseller and won the 2002 WH Smith Thumping Good Read award. Her third novel, Tokyo, was published in May 2004 and was another Sunday Times bestseller. Tokyo was published as The Devil of Nanking in the United States in March 2005. Pig Island was her fourth best seller and was published in April 2006. Pig Island was nominated for both a Barry Award for Best British crime novel, and a CWA dagger. Her fifth book, Ritual was the first in The Walking Man series, and was nominated for The CWA Ian Fleming Steel Dagger award. Her latest novel is Skin. It is the second book in The Walking Man series, and was released in early 2009. Hayder left school at fifteen, and has worked as a barmaid, security guard, film-maker, hostess in a Tokyo club, educational administrator and a teacher of English as a foreign language. Hayder has an MA in film from The American University in Washington DC, and an MA in Creative Writing from Bath Spa University - where she now teaches. Her debut novel, Birdman, was published in 2000 to wide acclaim. Although some reviewers found the novel (which concerns a serial killer with a particularly vicious modus-operandi) too violent and disturbing, the book became an international bestseller. Birdman introduced readers to DI Jack Caffery, a character who also featured in Hayder's second novel, The Treatment. The Treatment tackled themes of paedophilia. DI Caffery has returned in Hayder's most recent novels, Ritual and Skin, which she has called the Walking Man series. Mo Hayder lives in Somerset, England with her partner, Keith Quinn, and her daughter.

  • Mo Hayder, fille d’universitaires anglais, est née à Londres en 1962, est un auteur de romans policiers.
  • Figlia di uno scienziato, abbandona gli studi per recarsi a Londra a lavorare come cameriera. Abbandonata anche questa professione, si trasferisce a Tokyo, in Giappone. Qui lavora come giornalista per una piccola testata, finché non decide di lasciare tutto e recarsi negli Stati Uniti. Dopo aver studiato ed essersi laureata in cinematografia e girato alcuni film, ritorna a Londra, dove trova lavoro come guardia di sicurezza. Questo lavoro le permette di avere quel tempo libero che cerca per portare a termine un progetto: scrivere un romanzo. Nasce così il thriller Birdman, suo esordio letterario.

  • Mo Hayder är en brittisk kriminalnovellförfattare född i Essex, England. Hittills har hon skrivit 6 romaner vilka 3 har översatts på svenska. Innan Hayder slog igenom som författare livnärde hon sig på varierade ströjobb, bland annat som bartender och säkerhetsvakt. Efter ett kort äktenskap flyttade Hayder till Asien. Där arbetade hon bland annat i Vietnam som lärare i engelska och i Tokyo, Japan, som nattklubbsvärdinna. Efter tiden i Asien flyttade hon vidare till USA för att studera filmteknik, främst leranimation. Hennes animerade filmer har vunnit ett antal priser och gjort Hayder känd hos oberoende filmskapare. Tillbaka i England doktorerade hon i kreativt skrivande vid Bath Universitet, en kurs som hon numera själv är lärare för. Nu är Hayder boende i Somerset, England, tillsammans med sin sambo Keith Quinn och sin dotter Lotte-Genevieve. Hennes debutroman, Birdman (Fågelmannen), publicerades 1999 och är den roman hon fortfarande är mest känd för. Romanen fick stort genomslag men mottogs dock inte positivt av alla läsare, somliga tyckte boken var för våldsam och extrem. Birdman innehåller mycket grovt och perverst våld vilket också har fortsatt förekomma i Hayders böcker, om än något nedtonat. Birdman presenterade kriminalkommissarie Jack Caffery vilken också återkommer i flertalet av Hayders böcker, dock inte samtliga. Uppföljaren till Birdman kom 2001 och heter The Treatment (Trädens tystnad), boken behandlar bland annat ämnet pedofili. Hayders roman Tokyo blev när den kom 2004 mycket kritikerrosad. Den fick exempelvis kriminalromanspriset Silver Dagger Award. I vissa länder släpptes Tokyo' under namnet The Devil of Nankin.
