J D Barker recommends
Stalker (2016)
(Detective Inspector Joona Linna, book 5)
Lars Kepler
"An intricate plot and escalating tension set the stage for this tense, clever, pulse-pounding thriller. A must for fans of Stieg Larsson."
The Line Between (2019)

Inspection (2019)
Josh Malerman

The Never Game (2019)
(Colter Shaw, book 1)
Jeffery Deaver
"Grabbing you from the first page, Jeffery Deaver crafts a devilish plot that unfolds with breakneck speed. An excellent start to a new series, Colter Shaw has comfortably nestled onto the bench with Lincoln Rhyme and Kathryn Dance - one of our best literary puppet-masters at the end of all their strings."
The Deep (2020)
Alma Katsu
"The Deep takes us back to the final days of the Titanic, her sister ship the Britannic, and the mysterious woman who links them both. In a haunting story of love and revenge, Alma Katsu blends the paranormal and historical fiction as only she can—a spellbinding tale where desire knows no bounds and death is only a beginning. Another fantastic story from the author of The Hunger."
Home Before Dark (2020)

The 22 Murders Of Madison May (2021)
Max Barry
"With unrelenting tension, Max Barry weaves a complex tapestry where a sociopath's insatiable obsession knows no bounds, not even time and space, and only two things are certain - he will kill her again because he's killed her before. I devoured this novel in one sitting."
Chasing the Boogeyman (2021)
Richard Chizmar
"Absolutely riveting… Richard Chizmar’s keen ability to tell the small-town-tale, investigative insight, and captivating eye for detail, come together in this perfect storm of true crime horror."
