News: Steve Cavanagh Wins the CWA Gold Dagger Award

Hearty congratulations to Steve Cavanagh, whose novel THE LIAR (Orion) won the CWA Gold Dagger Award on Thursday, October 25th – no mean feat, given that Attica Locke, Dennis Lehane and Mick Herron were also shortlisted in the Gold Dagger category.
  Published in 2017, THE LIAR is the third in Steve’s Eddie Flynn series (the most recent, THIRTEEN, has just been shortlisted for the Irish Book Awards). Quoth the blurb elves:
IT TAKES ONE TO KNOW ONE ...
  WHO IS DEADLIER ...
  Leonard Howell’s worst nightmare has come true: his daughter Caroline has been kidnapped. Not content with relying on the cops, Howell calls the only man he trusts to get her back.
  ... THE MAN WHO KNOWS THE TRUTH ...
  Eddie Flynn knows what it’s like to lose a daughter and vows to bring Caroline home safe. Once a con artist, now a hotshot criminal attorney, Flynn is no stranger to the shady New York underworld.
  ... OR THE ONE WHO BELIEVES A LIE?
  However, as he steps back into his old life, Flynn realizes that the rules of game have changed - and that he is being played. But who is pulling the strings? And is anyone in this twisted case telling the truth...?
