Bouchercon, one of the largest mystery conventions held, was canceled this year due to the ongoing COVID crisis. But there are silver linings hidden in the cloud of depression. This Time for Sure, the anthology for the canceled convention, is available on 8/25 with stories by several leading lights of mystery, including G. Miki Hayden, Charles Todd, Alex Segura, and our own Martha Reed! The book is a hardback, and 100% of the net profits benefit the New Orleans Public Library.
The Bouchercon folks have also announced that they will be broadcasting an author discussion one night, and the Anthony Awards the next:
On Friday, August 27:
7 pm ET / 6 pm CT / 5 pm MT / 4 pm PT / Midnight GMT Bouchercon 2021 presents Alafair Burke in conversation with James Lee Burke, hosted by Heather Graham and Introductions from Rachel Howzell Hall.
On Saturday, August 28:
7 pm ET / 6 pm CT / 5 pm MT / 4 pm PT / Midnight GMT Bouchercon 2021 presents the 52nd 2021 Anthony Awards Ceremony! Only previously registered attendees will receive an Anthony ballot.
Check the Bouchercon site for more information as the dates draw closer.
