This is our February mystery book club selection. It won Mystery Writers of America's prestigious Edgar Award in the best first novel category. In the dedication, he talks about a note from Evan Hunter(real name of one of the greatest crime fiction authors, Ed McBain) encouraging him to turn a short story, Malice, into this novel.

So, I was excited to read this mystery... I LOVE Ed McBain... read this post...http://bagsbooksandbonjovi.blogspot.com/2010/05/silver-saturday-spotlight.html Let's just say, right now... at page 69, I'm a little underwhelmed. It's good, not great. I hope it gets better but it's a fast read so I'll stick with it. I'm interested in discussing at book club and hearing what everyone else thinks. We have fantastic discussions and they're even better when when there are varied opinions.
