I have to look at the Agatha Awards or the Anthonys before I recognize any of the contemporary writers. I know nothing of anyone who was nominated for this year's Edgars. Not even one of the first time authors and usually I recognize at one or two in that list because I pay more attention to the new writers. I thought Michael Ayoob might be nominated for his first novel, but no such luck for him.J F Norrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06473487417479127354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4953280070115140001.post-28084544829483100792012-01-19T20:19:13.998+01:002012-01-19T20:19:13.998+01:00I'm a bit surprised by the inclusion of 1222 w...I'm a bit surprised by the inclusion of 1222 which I thought was quite good but not brilliant. I'm a big fan of Philip Kerr and I think Field Grey a good book although perhaps not his best.Sarahhttp://crimepieces.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
