Books like The Girl on the Train

Hello,

I really like London centered thriller novels like Girl on the Train, The Girl Before and Louise Candlish books - Our House, The Sudden Departures of the Frasers etc

Can anyone recommend similar books please?

There is a book called Girl on A Train by AJ Waines (so different to the better known The girl on the train by Paula Hawkins) which I think is sent mostly in London.

Lisa Jewel seems to be branching off into this sort of genre with her latest books too and I think her books are usually set in London.

Tammy Cohen (also writes as Tamar Cohen) writes London books I think.

And the Nicci French Frida Klein books are all in London, which a whole big thing made about how much Frida loves the city.

I can recommend Sarah Pinborough's book which are in the same genre at the ones you mention.

I've read 13 Minutes and Behind Her Eyes and am part way through the new one Cross Her Heart.

I love all of the Nicci French books, I'd recommend them all but especially the Fried Klein series.

Another recommendation for Sarah Pinborough's Behind Her Eyes. I read the entire book on a 9 hour flight recently.

Just finished He Said, She Said, by Erin Kelly, which was good - same genre, and set mainly in London. Am about to look out for more by this author.
