Hi Karen, the title of Camilla Läckberg's 4th in her Fjällbacka series is The Gallows Bird (no apostrophe). I'm working on a book now by Åsa Schwarz that may be called Nephilim and may come out in time next spring -- but it's officially YA, do those count?
ReplyDeleteI don't think YA counts unless there's an adult edition - perhaps? I'm not sure though :). I'll be interested in it for my teenage blog.
ReplyDeleteHi Karen, are The Girl with the Crystal Eyes by Barbara Baraldi and A Jew Must Die by Jacques Chessex eligible? I thought they were, but from your list it seems maybe not.
ReplyDeleteThey were eligible for 2010 as they were out in May and Feb respectively. The new year runs from June.
ReplyDeleteOK, thanks - I'm just behind, then. There's also Yours Until Death (Staalesen) which I guess falls into that category - or perhaps does not qualify as it is a reissue of an older translation, by a new publisher.
ReplyDeleteI think I heard somewhere that K O Dahl and Gunnar S had newly translated titles coming out soon...but can't remember where. (In Staalesen's case, his translator has a lot of backlist to get through.)
Hi Karen, I have just checked out Basic Shareholder (Markaris) on Amazon and it is saying 2012 publication. Does this check out with you and if so, I presume it is no longer eligible for this round?
ReplyDeleteI took Basic Shareholder off recently (I think) as, as you say, it's now scheduled for Jan 2012. So yes will be eligible for next year's Dagger. Some books are tantilising dangled at us readers and then post-poned eg Cop by Manotti.
ReplyDeleteWell, the entries closed a couple of weeks back and it's interesting. (Like you, I see the actual entries since I run the website for the CWA.)
ReplyDeleteWithout disclosing exactly what the entries are, I think we can say that this year 33 books have been entered and all of them are on your list. So the missing books are down to the publishers and not to you.
