NOX DORMIENDA wins Bruce Alexander Memorial Historical Mystery Award

I was extraordinarily honored a few weeks ago. My debut novel, NOX DORMIENDA (A Long Night for Sleeping), won the Bruce Alexander Memorial Historical Mystery Award at Left Coast Crime in Kona, Hawaii.

I was and am stunned, grateful and humbled. My fellow nominees are friends who exemplify excellence in the field ... Rhys Bowen, Laurie R. King, and Tasha Alexander. It was my first trip to Hawaii, and one I will always treasure.

My next book, RICE BOWL, is a dark, sweeping PI novel set in 1940 San Francisco--coming early 2010 from St. Martin's. Arcturus, like James Bond, will return ...

In the meantime, thanks for reading!
