We are deeply saddened by the news of author Gail Bowen’s passing.

We are proud to have been her publisher for the last seven years, and we know how much the Joanne Kilbourn series meant to so many readers. Reader’s Digest has called her Canada’s best mystery novelist. Among her numerous achievements, she has been recognized with the title of Grand Master by Crime Writers of Canada, the Saskatchewan Order of Merit, and the Distinguished Canadian Award from the University of Regina.

Beyond her many literary accolades, she was a thoughtful, kind, and gracious person who was an absolute pleasure to work with. She will be deeply missed by all at ECW Press.
