About Richard Kunzmann

Richard Kunzmann is one of South Africa’s best-known crime fiction writers, with a degree in criminology to boast. He has a passion for African myths and mythologies which play out in some of his novels, most particularly seen in the muti killings of Blood Harvests.

When Kunzmann’s first novel was published, he was working as a bookseller in London, but soon saw the benefits of moving back to Johannesburg. His novels include Bloody Harvests (2005), Salamander Cotton (2006) and, most recently, Dead-End Road (2008). He now lives in London.
