The Mystery, Crime, and Thriller Group discussion

I enjoy many different authors but Joy Fielding, Alan Bradley and Lisa Jackson are the ones that I have read recently. I have also been enjoying translated mystery writes like Jo Nesbo,Edwardson and Camilla Lackberg, but am open to any and all recommendations.

Welcome!

Welcome to the group, Sharon!

Welcome!

I started A Drink Before the War by author:Dennis Lehane|10289].

I usually prefer more classic stuff (I'm also reading Spinsters in Jeopardy by Ngaio Marsh, but Lehane was recommended by a friend so I decided to try it. Quite good so far.

Thank you all for the warm welcome, I am very interested in seeing what everyone is reading.

The Pale Blue Eye by Louis Bayard.

Hi Tiffany I have to tell you I have been looking for a Jack The Ripper book for my 17 year old who just came home from Europe, while traveling she did a night tour in London of Jack The Ripper and has wants to learn more of the tale. It is now on my gift list. Cheers

Welcome to the group, Sharon. I'm sure you'll get many recommendations here. Enjoy yourself.

Sharon> Hope she likes it. I found the story well written and at times I felt I was reading a work of Conan Doyle himself.
