A Finnish author and journalist who gained international attention with his crime novels. They are translated into a number of languages and have been praised as dark descriptions of Finnish society today – and for their humour! Tuomainen was born in Helsinki, and still lives there together with his wife. In the 1990s he became known within the advertising sector and as a copywriter, but he was interested in literature and wanted to write himself. He finally decided to make an attempt, and after a slow start he is now a full-time writer, but also a freelance journalist.
