FabSwingers.com forum: Holiday Reads

Ok Fabsters, I'm off on holiday at the end of the month and as I'm a little bit lazy (and busy) I thought I'd get this up early to allow me time to decide what new books I should be looking for. I'm into thriller, detective page turners.

Please could I have your recommendations?

Probably not the right genre but I enjoyed 'the secret wife' by Gill Paul.

Failing that I'd go for gone girl, the girl on the train (if you've not already seen the film) or sometimes I lie.

Peter James "dead" books are really good detective Roy grace series. Patricia Cornwell also writes good psychological thrillers. X

tana French has really good ones- crime but not only action. feelings and intentions of the detectives are always very interesting.

no idea how the books are called in English though... but I enjoyed them all so far.

Another vote for Peter James here - doesn't overly matter but would recommend starting from the first.

Another one would be Mark Billingham's series of Tom Thorne books - similar to Peter James but recommended.

Tony Parsons has a series, starts with Murder Bag.

Infinitely better than his usual tripe!

Also can heartily recommend Lindsey Davis Falco series, private detective in ancient tones
