The 100-Year-Old-Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared, written by Jonas Jonasson, follows the travels of Allan Karlsson. Allan Karlsson currently resides in a nursing home. On his 100th birthday, Karlsson decides that the nursing home is not the last place he wants to see before he dies. Therefore, he climbs out of his bedroom window at the nursing home and heads towards the bus stop. There, he meets a young man also waiting for the bus. This young man asks Karlsson to watch his suitcase while he runs to the restroom. While gone, the bus arrives, leaving Karlsson with the suitcase, alone. Karlsson boards the bus, suitcase in hand, and the adventure begins. Jonasson, at 47 years old, writes his first novel of a 100-year-old man being chased by gangsters and the police, while fleeing with a suitcase full of cash.
