John Hart has scooped his second Edgar Award for Best Novel, for his third novel THE LAST CHILD. It's John's second Edgar for Best Novel, after scooping the same award in 2008 for his second novel DOWN RIVER. This latest win means that our favourite North Carolina lawyer-turned-author has now racked up two Edgars, as well as winning the prestigious CWA Ian Fleming Steel Dagger at last October's 2009 Specsavers Crime Thriller Awards. His next book THE IRON HOUSE will be published in May 2011.
