Under the pseudonym Alix Bosco, he won the 2010 Ngaio Marsh Award for Best Crime Fiction Novel with Cut & Run (2009) and was a finalist in 2011 with Slaughter Falls.

PLEASE NOTE: Due to family illness, Jennifer Rowe has had to return to Australia early and will not be able to participate in Sunday's A Mind for Murder panel, to be chaired by Craig Sisterson on Sunday at 10am at the Aotea Centre.

Replacing Jennifer on the panel will be Ngaio Marsh Crime Fiction Award winner Greg McGee, whose two novels written under the pseudonym Alix Bosco have earned him a devoted audience.  He joins fellow panelists Peter James, one of the UK's leading crime fiction writers and the chair of the UK Crime Writers Association, and award-winning Detective Tito Ihaka creator, Paul Thomas, for a discussion about the place of graphic violence in the genre.
