New mystery authors

Looking for new mysteries to read, but want to make sure the book is worth reading? Try the following books, all 2008 Agathat Award nominees for best first novel (the Agatha Award is given to traditional mysteries, loosely defined as those that "contain no explicit sex; contain no excessive gore or gratuitous violence; usually feature an amateur detective; and take place in a confined setting and contain characters who know one another.")

Through a Glass, Deadly by Sarah Atwell
The Diva Runs Out of Thyme by Krista Davis
Pushing Up Daisies by Rosemary Harris
Death of a Cozy Writer by G. M. Malliet
