BEST CRIME NOVELLA
Wayne Ng, Letters From Johnny, Guernica Editions
“Wayne Ng, does a marvelous job of capturing the voice of the boy, something that is very difficult to do. He has developed a very likeable and fully formed youngster, complete with the motivations and feelings one would expect in a ten year old. This winning novella captures the reader’s attention from the get go and keeps the reader fully engaged and in suspense until the very satisfying ending.”
Wayne thanks Crime Writers of Canada, Mystery Magazine (who sponsored the awards) and his publisher, Guernica Editions for supporting and celebrating Canadian writers.
