Greetings!
Spring is here at last which means we're gearing up for the Edgar Awards Banquet in New York City, followed by the Malice Domestic Convention in suburban Washington, D.C., in May. Brian and I hope to see many of you at one or the other of these events. If not, perhaps our paths will cross at Bouchercon in Albany, New York, or Magna Cum Murder in Indianapolis later this year.
To get you in the spring spirit, Senior Editor Teri Duerr has pulled together a dream team of crime writers to choose their favorite baseball mysteries. Teri is also responsible for the spiffy new look of "At the Scene." Pretty, isn't it?
We're busily working away on the Spring Issue #129, which you'll receive later this month. If your subscription is coming to an end, don't forget to renew. You won't want to miss this issue!
Best,
Kate Stine
Editor in chief
