François Boyer was a French screenwriter. He achieved considerable success with his first attempt at screenwriting, "Forbidden Games" (1952). Initially, he found no studio interested in his work, so he redesigned the screenplay as a novel and published it in 1947 under the title "The Secret Game". Although the novel achieved little or no success in its native country, it became a huge commercial success in America. Wikipedia
