The “cozy crime” genre is experiencing a surge in global readership, with a focus on mystery without excessive violence. Swedish authors Anders and Anette de la Motte, known for their successful crime novels, recently co-authored their first book, "The Crime in Capri." According to the authors, the key characteristic of this genre is the absence of frightening violence or horror details when dealing with crime. Anders de la Motte is a highly successful crime fiction author in Sweden, having sold millions of copies of his books. Anette de la Motte, his wife, contributes her expertise as a language teacher and education specialist. Their new collaboration offers insight into the growing appeal of this gentler approach to the mystery genre. The novel promises a compelling crime story, but without the graphic elements often associated with the genre.
