I am looking forward to a series of productive meetings in both Austria and Estonia, particularly what role organized crime plays in the Baltic drug trade.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
You could go to Estonia and there's probably an episode of 'Seinfeld' playing there. Television is a very powerful thing.
About 25 years ago, I started out as a reporter covering politics. And that sort of just evolved into organized crime, because organized crime and politics were the same thing in Boston.
Wherever there's opportunity, the mafia will be there.
It is difficult to survive as an author in Sweden, so for commercial success, it is good idea to write crime, get yourself translated, and live happily ever after.
The post-Soviet mafia wove a spider's web of dirty money around the world. Where better to attack it than to start with the Ukrainian criminal heavyweights - the 'family' and its closest circle?
For the whole of Western Europe, I know the business community quite good.
People have told me about organized crime in the fashion industry, but I can't talk about that. I'm looking to stay alive.
I'm very happy to have set a world record in Tallinn. Estonians sure do love athletics and combined events!
There are 195 crime books published in Sweden every year. You could cut that to 100 and keep the good ones.
I'll probably stay in Copenhagen... I can keep writing songs about my local community and about crime.
