2008 Edgar Award Winners
The 2008 Edgar Award winners have been announced.
I’m pleased to learn that Down River by John Hart (St. Martin’s, hardcover, $24.95), which is also a SIBA Award Finalist, has won for Best Mystery Novel. We’ve been a John Hart fan since his first novel, King of Lies, which was our first-ever hardcover mystery pick.
The winner for Best First Mystery Novel is In the Woods by Tana French, which will release in paperback on May 27th. Both my mom and I have read In the Woods and recommend it for fans of Val McDermid and other psychological British mysteries.
