Each year the Australian Crime Writers Association recognises and celebrates the achievements and continuing strength of Australian authors.
The Ned Kelly Awards for crime writing are among Australia’s oldest and most recognised awards. They are a highlight of the Australian publishing and literary calendar.
The Best True Crime Award is for outstanding writing in the true crime genre and often features some of Australia’s most recognised and awarded journalists and non-fiction writers.
This year is no exception. The judging panel commented that the strength of research and inside information was borne out in every book making these stories absolutely compelling.
