Donna Leon recommends
Shut Eye (1999)
(Billy Rucker, book 1)
Adam Baron
"Promising first novel . . Rucker is an intelligent reflective hero, a man well worth keeping an eye on."
Thin Ice (1999)
(Fizz and Buchanan, book 4)
Joyce Holms
"The writing is deft and smooth, and Fizz and Tam are a couple worth keeping an eye on."
Voice of the Violin (2003)
(Inspector Montalbano, book 4)
Andrea Camilleri
"The novels of Andrea Camilleri breathe out the sense of place, the sense of humour, and the sense of despair that fills the air of Sicily. To read him is to be taken to that glorious, tortured island."
When the Devil Holds the Candle (2004)
(Inspector Sejer, book 4)
Karin Fossum
"Marked by an intelligence and compassion not often found in the pages of crime fiction."
The Outside Lands (2016)
Hannah Kohler
"A book that is both sensitive and powerful, a marvel of historical accuracy and a riveting read."
Midwinter Murder (2020)
Agatha Christie
"Any mystery writer who wants to learn how to plot should spend a few days reading Agatha Christie. She’ll show you everything you want to know."
