Welcome to the Club

Congratulations are in order to “friend of The Rap Sheet” Martin Edwards (Dancing for the Hangman), who has been formally inducted as a member of Britain’s 78-year-old Detection Club. “[B]ecause I’m a lover of the traditions of the genre, it meant a good deal to me that I’d been elected to join the oldest association of crime writers in the world,” Edwards writes in his blog. He offers a bit more information about this distinguished association here.
