Eva Rossmann

Born in Graz (Austria) in 1962, Eva now lives in the Weinviertel (wine region) in Lower Austria. She graduated as Doctor of Law, specializing in constitutional law, and later worked as a journalist for ORF (Austrian Broadcasting Corporation), the NZZ (New Zurich Newspaper) and the “Oberoesterreichischen Nachrichten” (Upper Austria News).

Eva has been working as a freelance author and journalist since 1994. In 2000, she was voted Communicator of the Year for her commitment to women’s rights. She has published several works of non-fiction and has been writing crime novels since 1999. All of her novels, featuring journalist-investigator Mira-Valensky, delve into the shadow side of Austrian society…

In order to write her novel „Ausgekocht“, Eva did a lot of practical research, working in the kitchen of one of Austria’s best-known chefs. Since then, she has continued cooking with him, and, after passing the state-approved examination in 2004, can proudly call herself a qualified chef.

Her novel “Russen kommen” (Russians are coming) was voted Austria’s favourite book of 2009.

Eva Rossmann is also one of the hosts of the popular ORF talkshow Club 2.
