We are proud to announce that this year’s winner of the German Crime Fiction Prize is Suhrkamp author Simone Buchholz with her literary crime novel Mexicoring.

The German Crime Fiction Prize is the oldest award for crime fiction in Germany. Since 1985, a jury of crime critics, literary scholars, and crime fiction booksellers distinguishes the best crime novels of the year. The German Crime Fiction Prize honors novels that »lend new impulses to the genre with original content and literary skill.«
