The Wrong Man (2026) (Ethan Adler, book 1) Chris McDonald "I absolutely loved The Wrong Man. Pacy and addictive, with wonderfully realised characters and a genius central premise, I ripped through it in a day. An expertly told rock and roll murder mystery set in Manchester? Hook it to my veins now..."
The Hollow Boys (2026) Tariq Ashkanani "An absolutely spectacular slice of American gothic. Brilliantly written, wrong-footed me throughout, I didn't want it to end."
The Killer Question (2025) Janice Hallett "Gripping, whip-smart and compelling as ever, and made me snort-laugh at least once a page."
Lightfall (2025) (Everlands Trilogy, book 1) Ed Crocker "Brilliantly written and endlessly entertaining, Lightfall tears down everything you know about vampires, then reconstructs it into a tale that's thrilling and compulsive. Get it into your lives now. There will be blood..."
A Reluctant Spy (2024) David Goodman "Gleaming with freshness and verve, A Reluctant Spy is a pulse-pounding, twisting thrill-a-minute read that Slow Horses fans are going to absolutely love. There's a new spy king in town..."
The Last Murder at the End of the World (2024) Stuart Turton "Stu Turton has done it again with The Last Murder at the End of the World, the mad, alchemy-embracing bastard. A murder-mystery wrapped in a sci-fi allegory, it's utterly gripping, constantly confounding and will be another monster hit."
Thirteen Ways to Kill Lulabelle Rock (2024) Maud Woolf "With Thirteen Ways to Kill Lulabelle Rock, it's like Maud Woolf has joined forces with Tarantino and Edgar Wright to rip apart the crime/thriller genre, then remould it into something bad-ass and new. A genre-smashing, satire-mashing, ideas-packed gem of a novel."
Murder on Lake Garda (2024) Tom Hindle "No one does murder better than Tom Hindle. Murder at Lake Garda is a twisty, twisted who-dun-it that keeps you guessing until the final page. And it'll make you desperate to book a holiday to Italy, despite all the killing and intrigue. Essential."
Grave Expectations (2023) (Grave Expectations, book 1) Alice Bell "Witty, addictive, and breathes some much needed (undead) life into the cosy crime murder mystery genre."
Man Down (2022) James Goodhand "Man Down is truly special. A love letter to youth, life, love and hope, it's utterly compelling, completely original and will undoubtedly be one of the standout books of 2022. An absolute must read."
