Kim Hays, a citizen of both Switzerland and the United States, has written four books in the Polizei Bern series featuring Swiss homicide detectives Linder and Donatelli. Hays grew up in San Juan and Vancouver and has a PhD in cultural sociology from UC Berkeley. Thirty-seven years ago, she moved to Bern, her Swiss husband’s hometown.
