Shocked, awed, and floored for the second time in two weeks. Thank you, @internationalthrillerwriters for awarding THE BIG EMPTY the ITW Best Series Novel award of 2026. You are AWESOME! And special thanks to my beloved pal @gregghurwitzbooks , who accepted the award on my behalf. Love you, brother.
(Elvis and Joe thank you, too.)
THE BIG EMPTY won the big award, and now my publishers are passing along BIG savings. THE LAST DETECTIVE ebook for only $1.99. Today (May 3) only! US only! Grab it!
My editor, Daphne Durham, snapped this pic moments after THE BIG EMPTY won the Edgar award for Best Novel at the annual Edgar Awards banquet in New York City. I was lying on my living room floor with my busted ankle packed in ice when I found out I won. Watching True Grit. Perfect.
This happened. Thank you, @mysterywritersofamerica . I am honored, awed, and more appreciative than I can express. I wish I could’ve been with you tonight. You people ROCK!
(Elvis and Joe thank you, too)
Rocked to be longlisted for the 2026 Ian Fleming Steel Dagger Award, especially with this superb group of writers. Thank you, Crime Writers’ Association 🙏🏼
