On December 5th, Joseph Teller’s The Tenth Case, the first book of the Jaywalker series, was awarded the prestigious Nero Award as the Best Book of 2008! The award, presented at the annual Black Orchid Banquet in New York City by the Nero Wolfe Society, marks the second one picked up by the book, which had previously received a Daphne Award in Washington, D.C.
Both competitions were open to mysteries, thrillers, suspense novels, crime fiction and courtroom dramas–all categories that Teller’s novels qualify as. Previous honorees include Lawrence Block, Tess Gerritsen, Lee Child, Walter Mosley, former A.D.A. Linda Fairstein, former Senator Fred Harris and Dennis Lehane.
