Blood Orange. Just so addictive!

ChardonnaysPrettySister · 24/08/2019 15:12

The Cleaner, Elizabeth Herrmann.

Translated from German, set in Germany. Really good.

Anything by Karin Slaughter

FiveFarthings · 24/08/2019 12:40

Anything by Shari Lapina, all her books are great page turners

The Woman in the Window by aj Finn

WhoWants2Know · 24/08/2019 12:30

Sleeping Beauties, by Stephen and Owen King.

Anatomy of a Scandal by Sarah Vaughan is great and easy to get into. It's a political thriller set in the context of me too.

The couple next door

melissasummerfield · 24/08/2019 12:13

Jane Harper has written three books, all set in the Australian outback and absolutely brilliant!

Best books i’ve read in ages!!

Does thriller include crime novels? If yes: I really loved the Harry Hole series by Jo Nesbo. Some of the books are more like detective novels (murder at the beginning, book about solving it), some are about serial killers (scarier, killings troughout the book).

I generally love scandinavian crime authors.

Hellomatey001 · 23/08/2019 20:48

"Sometimes I lie" Alice Feeney, well written, scary and with the obligatory killer twist.

"Couple next door" by Shari Lapena not particularly literary but utterly gripping.

"Behind her eyes" by Sarah Pinborough - now this divides people, it does touch on the supernatural but the twist is a true wtf moment!

ShimmeryShiny · 23/08/2019 09:13

Michelle Campbell - She was The Quiet One

JiltedJohnsJulie · 23/08/2019 09:07

The Girl on the Train.

rosybell · 22/08/2019 14:03

Lisa Jewell - the family upstairs

Really easy to read and a bit of a page turner.

Autumn101 · 20/08/2019 17:55

I read Our House on holiday recently, was easy to read and some good twists

Lucyslampost · 20/08/2019 17:50

Agree about Alex Marwood. Also Lisa Jewell's recent books

SeroxatBlonde · 18/08/2019 11:31

Anything by Mark Edwards in particular The Magpie trilogy.

Ellmau · 18/08/2019 11:30

Most recently I've been gripped by Shari Lapena, An Unwanted Guest.

All of Ruth Ware's have been excellent.

ClosedAuraOpenMind · 08/08/2019 11:26

loved The Hunting Party by Lucy Foley

cortex10 · 07/08/2019 23:22

Alex Marwood - her books are loosely based on true crimes/mysteries

TapasForTwo · 07/08/2019 23:14

I'm looking forward to the third book glen

glenthebattleostrich · 07/08/2019 22:31

I was just about to recommend the same books as TapasForTwo.

The Stillhouse lake trilogy are brilliant, I read the third one in a weekend.
