The CWA Dagger Shortlists were announced on Friday at CrimeFest. As mentioned before, the most important one to me is the Crime Fiction in Translation Dagger, formerly the International Dagger for which I was a judge over ten years ago now.
The shortlist is below and you can check out the longlist, and also my extensive but not exhaustive list of eligible titles here.
