Elizabeth George recommends
Nothing Personal (1994)
Eileen Dreyer
"Eileen Dreyer creates the sort of skin-crawling suspense that will leave her readers looking with a wild and wary eye upon anyone at the other end of the stethoscope."
A Letter of Mary (1997)
(Mary Russell and Sherlock Holmes, book 3)
Laurie R King
"A Letter of Mary is a wonderful book, simultaneously inventive, charming, witty and suspenseful... I loved it."
The Long Close Call (2000)
Julia Wallis Martin
"Gripped me from the first page and held me until the final word."
China Lake (2002)
(Evan Delaney, book 1)
Meg Gardiner
"From beginning to end CHINA LAKE is a book that no reader of thrillers will be able to put down. Great characters, dynamic plot, nail-biting action - Meg Gardiner gives us everything. I highly recommend it."
Maisie Dobbs (2003)
(Maisie Dobbs, book 1)
Jacqueline Winspear
"Jacqueline Winspear's Maisie Dobbs is a welcome addition to the sleuthing scene...Maisie isn't a character I'll easily forget."
Telling the Bees (2013)
Peggy Hesketh
"With infinite compassion and perfect pitch, Peggy Hesketh has written an American classic."
Harm None (2014)
(Davies & West Mystery, book 1)
Will North
"For lovers of English mysteries with authentic setting and spot-on police procedures, North's Harm None is just the ticket."
The Halo Effect (2017)
Anne D Leclaire
"Anne LeClaire's new novel The Halo Effect takes us into the life, the grief, the anguish, and the ultimate redemption of a man who has endured the excruciating loss of his only child through murder."
The Color of Air (2020)
Gail Tsukiyama
"With a piercing and authentic sense of place, Gail Tsukiyama brings to life a group of ordinary Japanese/Hawaiians with intertwined lives that are filled with love, passion, empathy, wisdom, and joy. Life is hard, but it is not hopeless and in the shadow of the volcano Mauna Loa, unforgettable individuals--drawn by the author with tenderness and in vivid detail--contend with the pain and confusion of the past and the fleeting moments of happiness in the present, letting go of both pain and fear in order to meet the future."
