The Crime Writers Association has nominated my short story, Protecting the Innocent, for a Dagger Award. The Daggers are mystery writers equivalent of the Oscars, but with knifes as prizes. It's a pretty cool nomination, but my fellow nominees are: Sean Chercover, Jeffrey Deaver, Robert Ferrigno, Ridley Pearson, Peter Robinson & Jon Land, so competition is stiff.
The story appears in my collection Asking For Trouble and the anthology Thriller 2 edited by Clive Cussler.
The winner will be announced in July.
