With over a million copies sold, Aichner ranks among the most successful German-language crime authors. He has received numerous awards and scholarships, including the Crime Cologne Award, the Friedrich Glauser Prize, and most recently the Fine Crime Award 2023. The Times describes his work as “original, powerful, and gripping.”
