Our name is about honesty. The Monitor is owned by The First Church of Christ, Scientist, and we’ve always been transparent about that.
The church publishes the Monitor because it sees good journalism as vital to progress in the world. Since 1908, we’ve aimed “to injure no man, but to bless all mankind,” as our founder, Mary Baker Eddy, put it.
Here, you’ll find award-winning journalism not driven by commercial influences – a news organization that takes seriously its mission to uplift the world by seeking solutions and finding reasons for credible hope.

Whodunit? There are fewer more satisfying reading experiences than curling up with a mystery novel that you just can't put down. Each year, the Edgar Awards (named for master suspense writer Edgar Allan Poe) selects five mystery stories as the cream of the crop, with one winning the title of Best Novel. Here are the five novels the awards honored this year.
Hayder's novel, which won the Edgar Award for Best Novel, is the story of Jack Caffery, a detective who investigates what seems to be a normal carjacking. As Caffery and a police diver work together to discover the truth behind the incident, they begin receiving threatening letters from the culprit, who warns them that they're running out of time.
