Summary: Days before the posting of this podcast Mick Herron won the British Crime Writers’ Association’s Goldsboro Gold Dagger for his novel Dead Lions. The Gold Dagger is the highest award for an individual work in British crime fiction, and the ceremonies were televised a few days later on itv3. EQMM caught up with the author in September at the Bouchercon World Mystery Convention in Albany, New York, where we made this recording of his September/October 2007 EQMM story “Remote Control.” The recording conditions were not ideal, but the author’s reading of his story was. We hope you’ll enjoy it despite some unavoidable background noise. http://www.mickherron.com/
