CONGRATULATIONS NICK LOMBARDI JR ...

"Please, I can't ...  not here."  Darfield's face contracted into a woeful grimace, on the verge of shedding tears.

- Memorable Moment, Justice Gone by N. Lambardi 

I recently had some wonderful news from author Nick Lombardi Jr who emailed me that his book, Justice Gone which I'd reviewed here in February of this year had not only won the National Indie Excellence Award for Best Legal Thriller but was currently long-listed for the Reader's Favourite Award for the same category.

and congratulations Nick on this well deserved award.
