New true crime to be read at UCLA

My name is Maria Bouroncle and I’m a Swedish writer of true crime living in Washington DC. My debut “It Came to Me on a Whim – The Story of Ingeborg Andersson, Child Murderess” was recently published in English and this fall it will be used on the Scandinavian Crime Literature course at UCLA.
It Came to Me on a Whim tells the story of my great-aunt who killed her three children at the age of twenty-seven in 1929. Through exhaustive research, I’ve strived to shed light on what led up to this tragedy, which had been a tightly guarded family secret for over seventy years.
“Maria Bouroncle takes us deep into a story of real-life murder to show us the humanity – even love – behind the crime. A riveting read – haunting, atmospheric, and ultimately, heart-breaking”, writes Manil Suri, author of bestseller The Death of Vishnu.
