THE POWER OF THE DOG, just recently published by Kadokawa in Japan, has been chosen for the first ever TRANSLATED MYSTERY GRAND PRIZE which goes to the best mystery or thriller in translation published in 2009. The award was created last year by prominent translators to encourage greater readership of mysteries and thrillers in translation.
The Winter of Frankie Machine
“[A] gripping thriller...Like his book’s central figure, Mr. Winslow is good at what he does.”
–Tom Nolan, Wall Street Journal
The Power of The Dog
“A pit bull of a book. Once unleashed, this thriller...charges and attacks without mercy, shredding anyone in its path. A well-tuned plot, driving rhythm, intelligence and a touch of politics.”
—The Washington Post
