CWA Dagger Awards 2022 - Longlist for the Crime Fiction in Translation Dagger

The CWA Dagger Longlists were announced last night. The most important one to me is the Crime Fiction in Translation Dagger, formerly the International Dagger for which I was a judge about ten(!) years ago now. 

The longlist is below and you can check out my extensive but not exhaustive list of eligible titles here.

You can see the details of all the longlists announced via this pdf on the CWA website

Shortlists will be announced at CrimeFest on 13 May.
