Sorry, after I posted that I figured that may be the issue.

The results are hidden for me. So that's right.

Snowman was nominated first, I nominated Redbreast afterward unless I am mistaken.
If you're responding to my post, I was referring to their order in the series. Redbreast is earlier and had already been fully nominated when I accidentally seconded Snowman. I wouldn't have minded seconding Snowman otherwise except that another and earlier in the series was already going to the vote.

But like many detective series, the books in the series seem to each be pretty much independent stories, so really I'd be fine with either of them winning.

I went with Lehane in the end. I have him as an author I must read and I haven't partaken as of yet.

Only problem is that March is already a very full dance card for me already. I might not get to this until April.

True. That's why people post to say for whom they've voted.

ETA: Forgot to say that I voted for The Secret Agent.

I feel like I'm the last man alive to have never read James Patterson, so I voted for him.

And that's a wrap for the first round of voting. Looks like our choice for the run-off vote will be between Along Came a Spider by James Patterson and Shutter Island by Dennis Lehane. I'll go put the voting poll up.
