July 11 UPDATE:
It was just announced that New York Times Bestseller and award-winning author Robert Dugoni, whose books utilize Burien locales, ranks first of the three finalists of the ABA Harper Lee Award. The 2nd Annual Harper Lee Prize is sponsored by the ABA Journal and the University of Alabama Law School.
Last year, John Grisham received the inaugural Harper Lee Prize for Legal Fiction for "The Confession". Dugoni's book, "Murder One" has received 176,695 votes, more than the other two finalists, Michael Connelly for "The Fifth Witness", and David Ellis for his "Breach of Trust".
On Facebook Dugoni thanked his supporters and said he was humbled.
