We have a winner!

Posted on February 8, 2009 by

QUID PRO QUO has just won CBC’s Young Canada Reads! Set in Halifax, QPQ is a funny legal thriller for teens – “John Grisham for the skateboard set!” as the publicist likes to say. It previously won The Arthur Ellis Award for Best Juvenile Crime Fiction in Canada and was shortlisted for numerous other awards. RES JUDICATA, a stand-alone sequel to QUID PRO QUO, was published in the fall.

Thanks to student Simon Walker on the Young Canada Reads panel for so vigourously advocating on behalf of QUID PRO QUO.
