Peter Holloway, Shortlisted for Best Crime First Novel
Peter Holloway's novel THE ROARING GAME MURDERS has been nominated for the Best Crime First Novel, sponsored by Melodie Campbell, with a $1000 prize.
Peter is married with two children and has lived in Tsawwassen and Ladner for over thirty years. He has cycled the dikes and backroads around Boundary Bay and the Fraser River, where ‘The Roaring Game Murders’ takes place, as well as the many paths between. An avid curler, he leads Learn-to-Curl sessions for adults to introduce them to the roaring game. He has also coached juniors from recreational after school classes to competitive leagues and bonspiels and has organized a Latino Curling Day for local farm workers the last three years.
Peter has a B.A. in English and History from Trent University, and is a member of the Crime Writers of Canada, Delta Literary Arts Society, B.C. Federation of Writers, and Word Vancouver. After a successful career as a senior manager he retired in 2019 and for the last two and a half years has returned to writing. He is currently working on the second installment of the Boundary Detectives series and plans to publish in 2025.
