Mystery/Thriller Recommendations, Please!

Anonymous
Hi! I would love some recommendations for your favorite thrillers and mysteries. As examples, I’ve loved books by Riley Sager, Alice Feeney, and Lucy Foley, as well as the Cormorant Strike series. I can’t stomach books with child abuse/death. Happy to share some of my favorite recommendations for those interested. Thanks so much!

Simone St. James has some fantastic books…her early books take place in the 1940s (if memory serves) and her more recent books are a little more modern. There’s also at least one dual timeline.

Very atmospheric with some spice woven in.

I think her first one, The Haunting of Maddy Clare, has quite a lot of sex in it, which surprised me. But none of the subsequent books.

I don't read a lot of mysteries, but my favorites are:

Tana French
Jane Harper
Elly Griffith's Ruth Galloway series
Ruth Ware (though I've found her hit or miss)

Are you sure? I'm pretty sure the two leads get together in An Inquiry into Love and Death. He wants NSA at first. I'm almost positve.

Nine Lives by Peter Swanson. An update on Then There Were None. So good.
