Rudolph also brings word of which works won Foreword Reviews’ 2014 IndieFab Book of the Year Awards. These commendations were handed ’round last evening during the American Library Association annual conference in Las Vegas. Nevada. Recipients, we’re told, were chosen by “a select group of librarians and booksellers from around the country.” There are multiple winners in dozens of categories (find the complete list here), but below are the Gold medal victors that might be of greatest interest to Rap Sheet readers:Mystery:
As She Left It, by Catriona McPherson (Midnight Ink)
Thriller and Suspense:
Utopia, Texas, by Michael E. Glasscock II (Greenleaf)
