Lists of Bests: Crime Writers' Association's "Ellis Peters Historical Dagger Award (Nominees)" http://www.listsofbests.com/list/38378 "Started in 1999 in memory of Ellis Peters, author of the medieval Brother Cadfael series (http://www.listsofbests.com/list/17560), this award...is presented to a novel with a crime theme and a historical background of any period up to the 1960s." (As of 2007, it includes any period up to the 1970s.) _Note: The award was renamed the Ellis Peters Award in 2006. Also note that this award is given later in the year than the regular CWA Daggers._ Since there have only been a few winners so far, this is a list of the shortlists for each year. The winner is listed first, then the nominees. The CWA's website doesn't have the shortlist for 1999 or 2000, so those are missing.
