EXCLUSIVE: A+E Studios and Range Media Partners have prevailed in a competitive auction surrounding Swedish crime novelist Christoffer Carlsson’s International bestseller Blaze Me a Sun and its follow-up, Under the Storm, securing film and TV rights to both titles.
The announcement comes hot on the heels of Good Morning America‘s naming of Blaze Me a Sun as its Buzz Pick of the Week. The title, first published in the U.S.
by Hogarth Books on January 3, tells the tale of a small town’s collective guilt when a serial killer commits his first murder the same night the prime minister is assassinated.
Under the Storm has not yet been published in the U.S., though it’s currently available in Sweden. “We are delighted to be working with Christoffer to adapt BLAZE ME A SUN and UNDER THE STORM,” said Range’s Co-Heads of International, Oliver Riddle & Thomas Daley. “The exploration of multi-generational obsession, grief, and its impact on families and communities, set amongst the back-drop of a fascinating and horrifying mystery, lends itself perfectly to the brilliant, bold and thrilling dramas RANGE Studios is producing.” President and Head of A+E Studios, Barry Jossen joined A+E Studios’ Executive Vice President, Creative Affairs Tana Jamieson in adding that “A+E Studios is thrilled to be Christoffer Carlson’s creative partner in bringing his vision to television viewers around the world.
