The Duncan Lawrie International Dagger is an award given by the Crime Writers’ Association for best translated crime novel of the year. The winning author receives an ornamental dagger and £5,000. The translator of the novel is also awarded £1,000. The award was first given in 2006, and was partly concevied in order to acknowledge the contribution of the translator.
