MWA's Grand Master Award represents the pinnacle of achievement in mystery writing and was established to acknowledge important contributions to this genre, as well as for a body of work that is both significant and of consistent high quality. Mr. Crais and Ms. Hart will be presented with their awards at the Edgar Awards Banquet, which will be held at the Grand Hyatt Hotel in New York City on Thursday, May 1, 2014. When told of being named a Grand Master, Crais said, "I am happy, proud, and more than a little humbled to be chosen for this high honor by Mystery Writers of America. The list of Grand Masters is a list of my literary heroes. I may never accept that my name is now on this list, but I will be forever grateful for the kindness and generosity of MWA for placing me among these esteemed writers." Robert Crais hails from a blue-collar family in Louisiana. In 1976, after years of amateur film-making and short story writing, he moved to Hollywood and found work as a screenwriter, crafting scripts for such major TV crime shows as Hill Street Blues, Cagney & Lacey, and Miami Vice.

Randall did his time and built a new life in the small Maine town of Pastor's Bay, but somebody has discovered the truth about Randall. He is being tormented by anonymous messages, haunting reminders of his past crime, and he wants private detective Charlie Parker to make it stop. But another year-old girl has gone missing, this time from Pastor's Bay, and the missing girl's family has its own secrets to protect. Because Randall Haight The Burning Soul telling lies. However, there is no prologue or epilogue which is a first for the Charlie Parker series. Like the previous books, the The Burning Soul alternates each chapter between Parker and the rest of the cast. The Burning Soul is completely self-contained and can be read as a standalone novel, although there are a few references to the previous books, but nothing major or spoiler-ish. So I was curious to see how the new Charlie Parker novel would measure up to the rest of the series. The Burning Soul is a bit different in plot structure from the previous Charlie Parker novels as there is no Prologue. Charlie soon becomes involved himself when Aimee Pricehis attorney and some time employer, asks him to help her with a client: Randall Haightwho killed a year-old The Burning Soul with his friend when they were teenagers.
