I'm glad to see the Loren D. Estleman's stories nominated. They were very deserving.
I agree with David. Also happy to see the Max Allan Collins novel. I've been a Ms. Tree comics fan for many years.
The name of the P.I. in Dave White's book is Jackson Donne. The correction is being made on the press release before it goes out.

Thanks, Bob, I'll fix that. Should have caught it.
