Books in Order: A Comprehensive Guide to Sara Blaedel's Novels

Sara Blaedel comes from a creative family — her father, Leif Blaedel, was a diarist, and her mother, Annegrethe Nissen, an actress — and she worked her way into fiction through jobs as a graphic coordinator, presenter, researcher, and editor before her Louise Rick series took off. Born in Copenhagen and raised in Hvalso, she's since been published in more than thirty countries.

This guide runs all eleven Louise Rick novels, starting with Call Me Princess (also published as Blue Blood and the Silent Woman) in 2005 and continuing through 2022's A Harmless Lie — nearly two decades that took Blaedel from Danish-language crime writer to genuinely international name.
