Stina Jackson was born in 1983 and raised in Skelleftea, northern Sweden. In 2006 she moved to Denver, Colorado, where she lives with her husband and small dog. The Silver Road is her debut novel.
Unsettling and absorbing
*Observer, THRILLER OF THE MONTH*
A haunting debut... an unflinching examination of the kind of men
who prey on vulnerable young women.
*Sunday Times Crime Book of the Month*
I really enjoyed The Silver Road. There's a haunting, intoxicating
atmosphere throughout, intensified by the never ending Nordic
daylight, which is in stark contrast to the darkness of the
families the story follows. A great read.
*Ali Land, author of Good Me Bad Me*
A stunning read. Beautifully written and utterly haunting.
*Jo Spain, author of The Confession*
I lost the whole weekend to Lelle and Meja and couldn't have loved
it more. Deeply affecting and full of heart, yet a dark, despairing
page-turner. A very impressive debut.
*Chris Whitaker, author of All the Wicked Girls*
I love everything about this book. Stina Jackson has mastered the
art of combining suspense with literary depth. It's oh so
beautiful, wistful and well written.
*Lina Bengtsdotter, author of For the Missing*
Beautifully written, haunting and intense.
*Sunday Times Crime Club*
Jackson has the confidence to deliver a thoughtful, patiently told
story in which there are no conventional genre heroes, just
ordinary people struggling to cope with their respective
tragedies.
*Irish Times*
A masterclass in evocative sadness, loneliness and redemption, told
in a sensitive and captivating style. The author beautifully
portrays the pain of losing a child and the conviction that truth
must be found, however devastating it might be... vivid and
powerful... tense, atmospheric.
*Ewa Sherman, Crime Review*
With its haunting, lyrical prose, this story of love, loss, hope,
obsession and redemption, although at times desperately sad and
melancholic, captured my imagination from the start - a remarkably
assured debut novel.
*NB Magazine, Linda Hepworth's Books of the Year 2019*
