Dolores Redondo

Dolores Redondo is a Spanish novelist born in 1969 in San Sebastián. She is one of Spain's most successful contemporary novelists, known for the Baztan Trilogy — a series of crime novels set in the Baztan Valley of Navarre that combine police procedural with Basque mythology and folklore. The trilogy has sold millions of copies worldwide and has been adapted into Spanish films. Redondo published the first volume of the Baztan Trilogy, El guardián invisible (The Invisible Guardian), in 2013. The subsequent volumes, Legado en los huesos (The Legacy of the Bones, 2013) and Ofrenda a la tormenta (Offering to the Storm, 2014), completed one of the most successful publishing events in recent Spanish literary history. Todo esto te daré (All This I Will Give to You), her 2016 Premio Planeta winner, is a standalone thriller about a man who travels to the estate of his husband's aristocratic Galician family after his husband's death and discovers a web of dark secrets. The novel was a massive bestseller and demonstrated Redondo's ability to work outside her established Baztan world. Redondo is one of the best-selling Spanish authors of her generation and has played a significant role in the international success of Spanish crime fiction.
