I love the Elly Griffiths, Norfolk and Brighton series.
By contrast also Andrea Camilleri's Inspector Montalbano
books. The Sicilian setting and food is all part of unravelling the case.

'Girl on a Train' by Paula Hawkins.

A well-woven web of intrigue and obsession which kept me turning the pages.I really enjoyed reading the novel.

My favourites are the Mr mercedes trilogy by Stephen King, love the chase to stop the killer x

Carter Beats the Devil by Glen David Gould. Very strange and quirky, absolutely gripping – and a happy ending!

Womens Murder Club Books by James Patteson

I like some and Ellie Griffiths books are always good. Good Girl on the train was good but some are just to violent for me.

I really love the Agatha Christie novels, but equally have become engrossed in the Shardlake series by CJ Sansom...set in Tudor times and brilliantly researched and written.
As many others have said on this thread, trying to unravel the clues etc gives my brain a good workout! ?

Standing In Another Man's Grave by Ian Rankin.
Love a crime story where you suspect everyone, narrow it down to a prime suspect. Then find out you were totally wrong.

Anything by Patricia Gibney. I’ve just read her latest - Silent Voices.

I love the Ruth Galloway series. Action and good characters

My favourite is the snowman by Jo Nesbo, such a page turner and kept me on the edge of my seat all the way through, thoroughly recommend it! Love thrillers, I love guessing who dunnit and always get it wrong!!! ?

The 1991 version of Lynda La Plante's Prime Suspect.

Re: Thrillers...They can be immensely gripping and engross us and so we need to read further , twists and turns , chills and thrills , then just went you think you have sussed whats going on , Bang!! another shock .... pure excitement and our imaginations into hyper over drive much more than cinema.

I'm going to go off at a slight tangent on this one, the best thrillers I have read (in my personal opinion) are actually from writers who are better known in other genres.

Just about any of the Black Widowers stories by Isaac Asimov.

Jericho Falls, Crestwood Heights and Egypt Green by Christopher Hyde.

As well as a lot of novels that crossed over into other genres along with their crime, mystery or thriller elements (Stephen King, James Herbert, Michael Moorcock and Dean R Koontz among many others)

I guess I like the crime and thriller books simply because I love being challenged, and in most cases you can 'work on the case' as you read, racing against the protagonist as it were.

I Love, The perfect girlfriend by Karen Hamilton. It is about a starker, commentated by the starker.

I like reading it because, It gives a different insight into stalking, its very psychological. The main character evokes all sorts of emotions in me, including disgust, pity and empathy she is the criminal yet very much the victim too.

Something in the Water by Catherine Steadman. I was put off by the hype but it's actually a great novel.

Thrillers take you (safely)into danger-zones. A good thriller is often a page-turner and really keeps you engaged.

I love Ian Rankin’s Rebus novels, set in my home town Edinburgh. I have no individual favourite and am eagerly awaiting the imminent release of his latest one in paperback.

I'm an avid reader of Amanda Marsons. I particularly like Silent Scream. I love guessing who done it!

I love karin slaughter books especially kiss cut .

its the suspense of what will happen

I like the twists and suspense

My favourite crime thriller book is The Girl on the train.

I am a huge fan of Agatha Christie ! My Mother was too . The Mrs Marples ones I like the best .. At Bertram’s Hotel is a favourite..

Love all crime and thriller books for a bit of intrigue and excitement. So many are my favourites, but just recently I enjoyed "Faceless" by Martine Cole, gritty, a rollercoaster of a story and gripping. Couldn't put it down so many late nights.

Definitely Agatha Christie

Yesterday by Felicia Yap was one thriller that woulde stay with me. What I love most about thrillers is the twist in the end!

I loved "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo"
I love the mystery and suspense! I have to read thrillers during the day though otherwise I don't sleep trying to figure out and analysing whats going on!
