Critically-acclaimed “conspiracy noir” anthology THE OBAMA INHERITANCE is earning high marks in the awards department. It recently won the Foreword Reviews Indie Awards Bronze Medal for Best Anthology of 2017. And the title that NPR Book Critic Maureen Corrigan dubbed “a collection of 15 stories so sly, fresh and Bizarro World witty, they reaffirm the resiliency of the artistic imagination,” is a finalist for this year’s prestigious Anthony Award for Best Anthology (Fingers crossed! Winner will be named September 8 at Bouchercon 2018 in St. Petersburg, FL).
