Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Ronald Douglas Sanderson was born in Kent, England, in 1920, emigrating to Canada in 1947 after a stint with the Merchant Navy and the R.A.F during WWII. In Montreal, he worked in a Kellogg’s factory, as a jewelry salesman and as a cabaret singer, before publishing his first literary novel, Dark Passions Subdue, in 1952. Drawing inspiration from Mickey Spillane, Sanderson developed a leaner style and started writing hardboiled mysteries under the names Martin Brett and Malcolm Douglas. He left Canada in the early 50s, traveled around the U.S. and Europe, and eventually settled in Spain, where he married and had a son. Sanderson published nearly 25 thrillers in his lifetime, three of which were only published in France, where he enjoyed more popularity than the U.S. He died in Alicante, Spain, in 2002.
