If you like Patricia Cornwell, Jeffrey Deaver

[gurglebelly]

Kathy Reichs, Tess Gerritsen, Lisa Gardner etc which other authors would you recommend? I have two weeks off now and nothing to do so need some books to download.... I love a crime drama but do prefer American series (no idea why, just do).

Any recommendations gratefully received. Thanks x

Take a look at the Robert Hunter series by Chris Carter. I used to be a big Patricia Cornwell fan back in the day and these felt like her early works. Really gripping, heart racing stories that kept me up way later than I should have been.

I’ve not read any of hers for years though as I thought they went downhill and felt almost manufactured.

Has Chris Carter learned to write then? I once wrote an absolutely furious review on his publisher's website because his book was so poorly written it made me see red. Crucifixion something or other I think it was. It was beyond drivel!

Haha @HereBeFuckery I clearly have lower standards than you.

Also love a bit of Robert Galbraith (JK Rowling) and her Strike detective books.

@Puppermint no! If you like Strike/Galbraith you have excellent taste! I just could not stomach the Carter one!

Chris carter is amazing. You can't put them down
