Peter Swanson recommends
Beach Thriller (2026)
Jamie Day
"Set in an idyllic New England seaside town, Jamie Day's new thriller is rife with juicy gossip, slippery locals, and more than one buried secret. Day is a master plotter--the twists piling up like waves on a shore--but also a born entertainer, ratcheting up the suspense while also delivering complicated family dynamics, a touching love story, and a sly sense of humor. A real page-turner."
Darkrooms (2026)
Rebecca Hannigan
"A creepy, imaginative, and moody thriller that explores the rippling effects of a young girl's disappearance in the woods near a small Irish village. A chilling mystery about damaged people and the secrets they keep."
The Killer Question (2025)
Janice Hallett
"Another brilliant, literary puzzler from Janice Hallett. Through text threads and emails and pub quiz results she manages to create a fully formed world, one with dark twists and reversals, but also one that brims with her signature wit, along with just the right amount of genuine pathos. Her best book yet."
