You probably know what Catharsis is, as well as who Nemesis was – the goddess of revenge, justice and destiny. And do you know who Kairos is? “This is a young man from a very old myth. He is the god of opportunity. Once in a lifetime, he passes by you, and then you can grab him by the sleeve and decide about your fate. Kairos stopped in this one and only moment will lead you to the road of happiness. But if you miss it, you will regret it bitterly.”
Before he started writing novels, he had been a reporter conducting historical investigations for three decades. He received the Association of Polish Journalists (the so-called Polish Pulitzer) award for them three times. Its hallmark is building sensational stories on the basis of events that took place in reality. He made his debut as a writer at the age of 56 and quickly became one of the most popular authors of thriller novels in Poland.
