Mr. Churchill's Secretary Nominated for a Dilys Award!
Delighted to say that Mr. Churchill's Secretary has been nominated by the Independent Mystery Booksellers Association as the mystery title of the year independent mystery booksellers love hand-selling.
I purchased Mr Churchill's Secretary when it first came out but it went on my "to be read" stack. I finally started it this Sat morning and finished it last night at 2AM. What a great read and you and the book deserve every award you get. I really like Maggie and you so a great job of creating a real sense of the atmosphere in London at that time. Luckily, I had picked up Princess Elizabeth's Spy and already had it in my stack so I can jump right into the next Maggie story. Unfortunately, I will have to wait a few months for His Majesty's Hope. Wishing you the best and hoping that Maggie continues for many years to come. She is a wonderful character.
New York Times-bestselling and Barry Award-winning Susan Elia MacNeal is the author of the Maggie Hope Mystery series from Bantam/Random House. Her books have been nominated for the Edgar, Macavity, Dilys, Barry, Sue Federer, and Bruce Alexander Awards.
