Back at the end of the summer, when the days were still long and the weather was (almost) balmy, the team in charge of the Harrogate Crime Festival ran a Reader Review competition: write a review of a crime book and upload it to You're Booked, with a prize for the best submission. I entered my review of Luther: the Calling by Neil Cross, a book that terrified me. And last Monday, a particularly dreary day of fog and cold, I received an email: "I am pleased to announce that your review has been selected as the winning entry in our Reader Reviews Competition. Thank you so much for taking the time to write and submit your review. We very much enjoyed reading your submission. Wonderfully written and incredibly perceptive, we thought your review gave the perfect balance of plot summary and personal analysis."My prize? A goody bag 'jam-packed' with crime books. I call that a result. Thank you, Harrogate team!

Well done you! I went to the crime festival it was great!
I didn't make it to the festival, so the goody bag was a lovely late treat.
Congratulations, how lovely, more books!
Thanks! Yes, more books plus a mug and a pen and a tote. Lovely stuff.
