Martin Michaud

Author and screenwriter

Born in 1970 and based in Montreal, Martin Michaud practiced business law for 20 years before devoting himself entirely to writing. Martin’s novels featuring Detective Sergeant Victor Lessard of the Montreal police —a tormented, rebellious cop with high morals— were a dazzling literary success, have earned him critical acclaimed as the master of the Quebec thriller and numerous literary prizes. In addition to writing novels, he works on the screenwriting of his books and on original projects for television and cinema. The first season of Victor Lessard is the adaptation Martin made of his novelJe me souviens.
