Graeme Macrae Burnet was born in Kilmarnock and now lives in Glasgow. He is the author of four novels, The Disappearance of Adèle Bedeau, His Bloody Project, The Accident on the A35 and Case Study.

Case Study was published in October 2021 to wide critical acclaim. Hannah Kent called it “a novel a mind-bending brilliance.” The Bookseller described it as “a thrilling investigation into the nature of sanity and identity.” It has been longlisted for the Booker Prize, the Gordon Burn Prize and shortlisted for the Ned Kelly International Crime Book of the Year.

His Bloody Project was shortlisted for the 2016 Man Booker prize, the LA Times Mystery Book of the Year and the European Crime Fiction prize and won the Saltire Prize for Fiction and the Vrij Nederland Thriller of the Year.
