Full Frontal

I understand that readers’ attention might currently be directed at such seasonal matters as present giving, eggnog quaffing, and mistletoe hanging. (It never hurts to get those sprigs up early and keep your pucker at the ready.)

But I just want to remind everybody about The Rap Sheet’s “Best Crime Fiction Covers of 2009” competition. So far, the fronts at the front of the pack come from The Manual of Detection, by Jedediah Berry; Ravens, by George Dawes Green; Shadow and Light, by Jonathan Rabb; and The Killing Circle, by Andrew Pyper.

You can look over our shortlist of a dozen standout book jackets here, and then choose your favorite. We will leave this cover contest open until midnight next Monday, December 28, and report the results soon after that.

Don’t forget to vote!
