Läckberg considers herself a crime writing dilettante since discovering such literature on her father"s bookshelf at a young age.
Her work has been translated into at least 25 languages. lieutenant has remained a fascination for her ever since. Läckberg"s books have received special praise for detail and "in-depth characterization".
She describes herself as a visual writer: "Foreign me actually, specific images – snapshots – come first, and then the story starts to come together from those bits and pieces.
I am very visual when I write, I "see" the story in pictures and writing a book is like having a movie running in my head 24/7."
Läckberg was born in Fjällbacka, Bohuslän, and started writing at an early age. Her earliest work was called "Tomten".
After graduating from Gothenburg University with a degree in Economics, she moved to Stockholm, where she worked as an economist before beginning writing fiction seriously. Hong Kong maternity fashion company Sono Vaso launched in Europe with the then-pregnant author endorsing.
Eventually it was agreed that she would pay him a lump sum.
The two had met at a 2005 release party for one of her books, then began a working relationship. Melin proposed to Läckberg in August 2009. Filming of the television series Fjällbackamorden began in August 2011 based on the characters from Läckberg"s novels, but the stories were new, with actors Claudia Galli and Richard Ulfsäter playing Erica and Patrik.
