The recent explosion of creativity in Irish crime writing – sometimes called Emerald Noir – has been remarkable by any standards and Irish crime writers are now being internationally recognised with nominations for top awards like The Edgars. All the more reason why they should be competing for domestic awards too which is why we were delighted that Ireland AM should choose to sponsor The Ireland AM Crime Fiction Award, which in its short life has proved an enormous popular success.
