Shortlisted!

I heard this week that Murder Among the Roses has been shortlisted for The People’s Book Prize – founding patron, Beryl Bainbridge, present patron Frederick Forsyth .

The announcement came completely out of the blue.

I’d never heard of this book prize, but it’s a literary competition aimed at finding, supporting and promoting new and undiscovered works — an unlike other literary prizes is decided exclusively by the public. who can vote online on three shortlists – fiction, non-fiction and children’s fiction.

Publishers can submit up to three titles and the fact that Joffe Books has three books shortlisted in the fiction category this year is a testament to their excellent editorial standards and great author list.
