Her fifth book, a short story collection called CUTS AND BRUISES (Små stød), was released in April 2023.Riel is often described as a new, exciting voice with a refreshingly quirky and original take on language and narrative. She likes to deal with the tortured or conflicted mind and enjoys pushing the plot to its sickest, darkest, even most grotesque limits. And yet the story never becomes unequivocally bleak or depressing since its characters and their actions are depicted with a (perhaps worrying) degree of understanding, compassion and often, humour.A fascination with contrasts and differ from the norm is a defining characteristic of Riel’s authorship. The same can be said of small, surprising twists that take the plot in unexpected directions.Please go to aneriel.dk to find news and more info – in Danish and English – on the authorship.AWARDS and nominations:For RESIN- The Glass Key / Best Nordic suspense novel 2016 - The Harald Mogensen Award / Best Danish suspense novel 2016 (DK)- Den Gyllene Kofoten / Best suspense novel translated into Swedish 2017 (SE)- The Golden Bullet / Best suspense novel translated into Norwegian 2017 (NO)- The ThrillZone Award / Best thriller translated into Dutch 2019 (NL)- Finalist for The Danish Broadcasting Company’s Best Novel Award 2016 (DK)- Shortlisted for The Petrona Award 2018 / Best Scandinavian suspense novel coming out in the UK (UK)- Nominated for The Readers’ Best Novel Award 2016 (DK)- Nominated for The International Dublin Literary Award 2020 (INT)For CLOCKWORK- Nominated for the ThrillZone Award 2022 (NL)For BEAST- Nominated for the Martha Award 2020 (aka The Readers' Favourite Author Award) (DK)- Nominated for the ThrillZone Award 2020 (NL)For THE BUTCHER OF LISELEJE- Best crime novel debut 2014 (DK)For the authorship:- The Niels Matthiasen’s Memorial Award 2016 (cultural award) (DK)
