The Dagger in the Library is to reward authors who have been bringing pleasure to library users with their crime books for over 10 years; have never previously won the CWA Dagger in the Library and have never won the CWA Diamond Dagger.
Pauline Rowson is the author of nineteen crime novels, fourteen in the Inspector Andy Horton police procedural series; three Art Marvik mystery thrillers and two standalone thrillers. She is also the author of the murder mystery play set in 1940, Murder at the Pelican Club.
Her crime novels have been translated into other languages and many are available as audio books.

A mysterious telephone call sends Horton on a complex and twisted investigation into the death of a local politician twelve years ago and uncovers a trail of lies, secrets and revenge with roots deep in the past.
