Organizers of Toronto, Canada’s 2021 Bloody Words Mini-con had to cancel that event, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the winner of this year’s Bony Blithe/Bloody Words Light Mystery Award is still scheduled to be announced—online—on May 28.
In advance of that event, a shortlist of five contenders for the Bony Blithe has been released, as follows:
• There’s a Murder Afoot, by Vicki Delany (Crooked Lane)
• The Adventures of Isabel, by Candas Jane Dorsey (ECW Press)
• Mrs. Claus and the Santaland Slayings, by Liz Ireland (Kensington)
• Obsidian, by Thomas King (HarperCollins Canada)
• A Match Made for Murder, by Iona Wishaw (Touchwood Editions)
The Bony Blithe is intended to “celebrate traditional, feel-good mysteries” that can bring a smile to judges’ faces. This year apparently marks the 10th year of the prize’s presentation. Check the Bloody Words Web site or its Facebook page for updates.
