Leena Lehtolainen was born in Vesanto, Finland, to parents who taught language and literature. As a child, she made up stories in her head before she could even write. At the age of ten, she wrote her first book, a young adult novel, which was published two years later. Besides writing, Leena is fond of classical singing, her beloved cats, and her greatest passion figure skating. She attends many competitions as a skating journalist and writes for a Finnish figure-skating magazine, Taitoluistelu. Snow Woman is the fourth installment in the bestselling Maria Kallio series, which debuted in English in 2012 with My First Murder and continued in 2013 with Her Enemy and Copper Heart. Leena lives in Finland with her husband and two sons.
