Love and Death in the Sheets

With all of the excitement last week surrounding the Edgar Awards presentations in New York, followed by this last weekend’s Los Angeles Times Book Prizes, we somehow neglected to mention the Romantic Times Awards, given out on Saturday during the Romantic Times Book Lovers Convention in Houston, Texas.

The following titles were winners in the Best Mystery Novels category:

• Amateur Sleuth: Definitely Dead, by Charlaine Harris (Ace)
• Contemporary Mystery: Snow Blind, by P.J. Tracy (Putnam)
• First Mystery: Blown Away, by Shane Gericke (Pinnacle)
• Historical Mystery: North by Northanger, by Carrie Bebris (Forge)
• P.I./Procedural Novel: The Finishing School, by Michele Martinez (Morrow)
• Suspense: The Kill, by Allison Brennan (Ballantine)

These commendations are sponsored, of course, by the magazine Romantic Times Book Reviews.
