Claude Brami (born 20 December 1948 in Tunis) is a French writer, winner of the 1982 Prix des libraires. During the 1970s, he wrote a dozen detective novels under the pseudonyms Christopher Diable and Julien Sauvage. Biography He was a great lover of detective novels from the age of eleven. In 1968, while still a student, he wrote his first book. La Lune du fou appeared in 1973 under the pseudonym Julien Sauvage. Fifteen police novels will follow under this pseudonym, whose series devoted to the exploits of the adventurer Bruno Campara, nicknamed the Condottiere and three novels of espionage that stage Nicolas Rone. Under the pen name Christophe Diable, he gave three detective novels: Une affaire trop personnelle, La Petite Fille au chewing-gum (un chewing-gum qui tue) and La Plus Longue Course d'Abraham Coles, chauffeur de taxi. This last title won the Grand Prix de Littérature Policière. After 1977, Brami lost interest in genre literature and, under his patronym, signed a few novels for the publishing house Denoël and Gallimard. Claude Brami also works as a television advisor. He works on series for Victor Vicas on the first channel and for Claude Barma on the second. The author nevertheless continues to write on his typing machine every day and year round novels for one copy every three or four months, because, he says: "If I stopped , I do not know if I would have the courage to start again". He practices assiduously tennis and martial arts: he has high grades in karate and aikido.
