The sequel, THE NEXT ONE TO FALL, will be published on February 14, 2012.
Hilary won the 2010 Spinetingler Award for Best Short Story for “Insatiable,” which is in the Beat to a Pulp anthology. Her first short story, “Anniversary,” is featured in A Prisoner of Memory and 24 of the Year’s Finest Crime and Mystery Stories (Pegasus, 2008). Her “Son of So Many Tears” is included in Thuglit Presents: Blood, Guts, and Whiskey (Kensington, May 2010). In September 2009, Hilary won the Watery Grave Invitational, a short story competition for crime writers, with her entry, “Beast.”
Hilary is also the author of 18 nonfiction books, including Frommer’s New York City Day by Day and Frommer’s Toronto. Originally from Toronto, she has lived in New York since October 2001.
