We’re very excited to announce that The Tenth Case by Joseph Teller has won the Nero Award, a very prestigious award in the mystery and thriller community. It is judged by an expert panel and given to only one book per year.

The Tenth Case is the first book in the author’s Jaywalker series of legal thrillers and is followed by Bronx Justice and Depraved Indifference. The next book in the series, Overkill, will be published in August 2010.

You can listen to a podcast with Joseph Teller discussing his inspiration and own background that influenced The Tenth Case.

Congratulation to Joseph!
